Right. I don't really see XML as a panacea. Whenever there's a problem of how to represent any data anywhere, someone always suggests XML. But you'd still have to write all the analog-XML to * converters, so really you've just moved the problem. I too would like to see an XML output, but I'd be even more keen to see it as just one output from a general output-generator. -- Stephen Turner, Cambridge, UK http://homepage.ntlworld.com/adelie/stephen/ "The question of whether a computer can think is no more interesting than the question of whether a submarine can swim."
