Module Creation: FG or straight to XML?

I was curious how many people create their modules straight from XML source or if anyone uses the functionality of FG to make their entire module?

I use a combination - straight into FG for 90%, into campaign db.xml for tables.

Well I suppose that means I should learn XML...how much will I benefit from that?

if anyone likes to test my simple moduleeditor then please send me your email.
you can open an save the db.xml an edit it including copy/paste.

I'm kinda interested, shoot it my way, [email protected]

I sent a PM but tiread as I am...
Forgot the whole E-mail thing.

Currently I use both. I will build a skeleton in FG of the encounters using just the encounter names and then go into the xml and add the data. Mostly I do this because I can cut and paste easily into the xml and since I build the xml skeleton in FG I don't have to worry about the xml tags much. You can build everything in FG but I find the poor cut and paste support to be too slow for my taste.

As Stuart, mention you do have to do tables in the xml, but tables in modules are fairly rare.
