DTD
Document Type Definition, a method for specifying valid characteristics (elements and attributes) for an XML document.
XML-aware
An XML-aware editor has programmed-in behavior to assist users in creating and editing XML documents. This usually includes things like auto-indenting, automatically adding closing tags for each opening tag you type, and such. Many also provide additional capabilities, like being able to read coded information in DTDs or Schema files and being able to suggest valid attributes and values for auto-completion.
