X?Emacs, of course.  Except that neither supports sizing images, so
you'd have to use browse-url to send it to an external browser to get
some idea of what it would look like.

I would definitely do this stuff in X?Emacs.  In XEmacs, and I believe
in GNU Emacs, you'd need to program in Lisp, but either can handle
screwed up mixtures of encodings in the same file, and it would be
easy to write a function to convert character entities to actual
characters.
