Default Do you need a xml editor to edit xml files?

Can one edit a xml file with notepad or does one need a xml editor?

I tried to insert a game that was missing on my HS mame xml list (bobble bobble I) ... used note pad for the editor....ran HS and it froze at a black screen.

I thought I entered everything correctly (copy, paste) and with the rom name/info

Do I need a xml editor? any easy to learn but free ones?

you can use notepad but you have to be very careful when doing so, everything needs opening and closing game tags when adding or removing games

I use notepad++, it's free and shows the coloring on the XML tags.
