No I figured/guessed that about the space between "profiles xsd/profiles.xsd", but I am talking about the ending trailing space before the closing double quote, is that one really correct too? there is a trailing space at end that still looks wrong to me in profiles.xml and hosts.xml config files.

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.wpkg.org/profiles xsd/profiles.xsd ">
                                                                ^^^^

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.wpkg.org/hosts xsd/hosts.xsd ">
                                                          ^^^^

maybe it was the above ending traling space that n++ did not like?

Stefan I think you might have misunderstood my question about why the hosts.xml file validation starts with <hosts:wpkg> and not with <hosts:hosts> ? BTW removing the xsi schemalocation lines makes no difference at all in allowing me to save the hosts.xml file with <hosts:hosts> I can only save it as <hosts:wpkg> why is that so with that particular file whilst all other files seem to repeat the xml file name as in <profiles:profiles> <packages:packages> etc. What is the logic behind that?

Thanks for taking the time to explain to somebody tat is trying to understand things.
