## Description

**XML Editor** is a powerful Chrome extension designed for efficient viewing and editing of XML, HTML, and other text file formats. Users can edit files in two modes: by individual rows or entire pages, providing flexibility for different editing needs.

This editor supports a wide range of text encodings including UTF-8, UTF-16 (BE/LE), UTF-32 (BE/LE), KOI8-R, various ISO-8859 formats, and many more. It automatically detects file encoding, ensuring that your files display correctly. Additionally, users can create new documents, preview FB2 files, and easily open files from other applications. The extension includes handy features like "find/change text", file saving with chosen encoding, and direct file sharing via Google Drive or email. XML Editor is optimized for modern Android systems (4.4+), featuring in-app document copying for seamless file management.
