When saving the whole tree content in one file, I want to be able to get the structure of the tree and relocate the data to each leaf and definitely not touch the content which is parse the wxrichTxtCtrl. I was hoping Elementtree could help with this.. but maybe I am wrong and should think of a simplier system of tags in the text.
