IETF Tools *IETF-related tools, standalone or hosted on tools.ietf.org.* (Tools hosted by the secretariat are listed at www.ietf.org/tools).

	Prepare documents
	Edit IDs in .nroff with wysiwyg display Stefan Santesson NroffEdit is a Java application for writing and editing Internet Draft files using the nroff format. This application lets you load any I-D nroff file, which will be shown processed in the right-hand window, and can be edited in the left-hand window.
	Write RFCs using wiki-style markup ('markdown') Miek Gieben Pandoc2rfc uses Pandoc in combination with Make and XSLT scripting to produce internet-drafts in XML format from plain text input. The plain text only needs a few formatting conventions, more or less like wiki markup.
	Draft Submission Secretariat Services The New Internet Draft Submission Tool replaces the older Draft Submission Tool and the even older email submission workflow, and lets an author submit a new or updated draft through a webpage, and have it appear in the archives immediately.
	Draft HTML and PDF from XML source Julian Reschke A set of XSLT transformations that can be used to transform RFC2629-compliant XML (see RFC 2629) to various output formats, such as HTML and PDF
	Templates for xml2rfc work Elwyn Davies Elwyn Davies has produced a template as a starting point for writing drafts using xml2rfc. You can find a copy of the XML template at the RFC-Editor's site, and another copy of the XML template at tools.ietf.org.
	Draft TXT and HTML from XML source (xml2rfc) xml2rfc will allow you to take your XML source (using the format defined in RFC 2629 and its unofficial successor) and generate well-formatted text and html versions of drafts from it. Version 2 of xml2rfc is a complete rewrite in Python. You can get the source of the command-line tool here: svn.tools.ietf.org/svn/tools/xml2rfc/version2/cli.tgz It is also available for installation from the Python Package Index (PyPi): pypi.python.org/pypi/xml2rfc/ There's a tutorial available on how to install from PyPi, or if you're impatient you can try the following commands on the command line: `pip install xml2rfc` if that fails: `easy_install pip` `pip install xml2rfc` if that fails, go to the tutorial above. The GUI source is here: svn.tools.ietf.org/svn/tools/xml2rfc/version2/gui.tgz and you can download various installation packages from here: tools.ietf.org/tools/xml2rfc2/ .
	Validate XML input for XML2RFC Bill Fenner Performs many checks on an XML input document, verifying both XML welformedness and many other issues specific to document processing through xml2rfc.
	Fix document spacing. Henrik Levkowetz Fix up the spacing between sentences to use two spaces. (This is a small script written in awk).
	Check internet-drafts for submission nits Henrik Levkowetz Use idnits to check that your draft has the desired formatting, boilerplate, references consistency and more.
	Run a spelling-check on your internet-draft Henrik Levkowetz Idspell uses an IETF-specific wordlist built from the last 2 years' published RFCs, surnames of recent I-D authors and some manually added words.
	Draft HTML and PDF from XML source Julian Reschke A set of XSLT transformations that can be used to transform RFC2629-compliant XML (see RFC 2629) to various output formats, such as HTML and PDF. For more information, see the documentation.
	Draft Diff Tool Henrik Levkowetz When looking at updated drafts, you want a diff with the previous draft which ignores changing page layout and moved page headers and footers. Get it here.
	Templates for MIB Documents David B. Harrington The MIB Doctors have produced three templates specifically aimed at drafts containing MIB modules: • The first is an XML template for editors that use XML2RFC. Some advice echoing guidelines from RFC4181 is embedded in comments. • A second template is a text template for MIB documents with advice embedded in the document. • A third template is a plain text template with no advice included.

	Verify compliance
	BNF Parser² Vclav Vacek BNF Parser² is an online syntax verification utility. It is capable of checking whether a string conforms to a syntax specification written in a Backus-Naur Form (BNF) dialect.
	Generate ABNF Parsers (with extensions)
