[no subject]

	I was happily perusing a handbook written in docbook, then took a look at the 
file behind it. I was considering updating the manual, but have zero skills 
in docbook - other than simply looking at a docbook file and seeing where 
some changes would be required. Unfortunately, I'm more of a word processor 
user, and not so much of a raw file editor type of person.

	So - are there any tools that simplify editing and writing a docbook and that 
show you what the finished product would look like? Or do you manually edit 
the raw file, keeping a reference of docbook formatting commands (kind of 
like editing html in a text editor?). I'd like to help a project, but don't 
want to bite off more than I can chew.

	Also, any recommendations on books for technical writing I could pick up from 
the library? I was an English Lit major with a Philosophy minor for 3.5 years 
before changing to a CompSci major - so would like to combine those skills if 
at all possible.
