Hi,
I recommend using the XML, JSON or YAML version of the plan, whichever
is easiest in your programming language to parse. I do not think anyone
has written a formal schema yet for the XML but it still should be much
easier to parse than rolling your own parser for the human readable format.
But if you insist on parsing the human readable format, e.g. to support
versions before 9.1, I recommend that you take a look at
http://explain.depesz.com/ which supports parsing text plans in addition
to XML and JSON. The site is open source and written in Perl.
The source code can be found at:

Sorry, I did not see the other thread about the same thing. Let's keep
all discussion there.
