If there is I can’t find it. For instance, I just pasted some XML and it’s all on one line. In WebStorm I can click Edit > Reformat Code and it inserts linebreaks and tabs appropriately. Does EmEditor have such functionality?

I sometimes have the same problem with xhtml. Most likely you’ll need an external tool.
In my case I use an external tool called htmltidy. Emeditor doesn’t seem to have integrated such a tool.

Similar tools for xml exist; google for example lists:
http://www.freeformatter.com/xml-formatter.html
http://www.cleancss.com/xml-beautify/
http://www.webtoolkitonline.com/xml-formatter.html

Hope this helps.

Hi there,

In EmEditor you can do such things by utilizing external command-line tools,
for an HTML Tidy example see e.g. https://www.emeditor.com/forums/topic/xml-without-line-breaks/
Tidy reads HTML, XHTML and XML files and writes cleaned up markup.
 
Also you can g00gle e.g. for “Artistic Style” (http://astyle.sourceforge.net/)
A Free, Fast, and Small Automatic Formatter for C, C++, C++/CLI, Objective‑C, C#, and Java Source Code
 
There are many of them.
Or search here the Library if there is a script already.

 
If you need help on Tool setup, just ask.

 
HTH?
