Make Eclipse Kepler into ONLY an XML editor

So I want to get rid of plugins that are not needed to display and edit an XML file on Eclipse. And eventually I want to create a plugin that reads the xml file and looks for errors and displays them to the user. Much like how Word will give a underline a word in red if it is spelled incorrectly.

Any one have an idea of which plugins I should delete and which ones I shouldn't?

I don't recommend deleting plugins from the file system.

To achieve what you are looking for, follow these steps:

  1. download the Eclipse Standard Edition
  2. Open a new workspace
  3. Go to 'Window' --> 'Preferences' --> 'General' --> 'Capabilities'
  4. click on 'Disable All' button then 'OK' button
  5. Restart the workspace

XML syntax validation is out of the box and no need to develop a special plugin for it. And even spelling validation is included.
