> Whitespace changes only. Used xmlformat

So, after 3+ years of seeing Davids whitespace commits mention xmlformat, I
decided to download and try it.

I used it in Cygwin shell, though I guess if perl is in the windows path ok
it should work on DOS prompt too.

I configured a new config file just over-riding the indent to 2 space. I
left everything else at defaults.

Running it on this one file for testing I was initially disspointed.

$ xmlformat.pl --config-file=/path/to/forrest.conf -I -b .bak
locationmap.xml

It correctly removed whitespace and indented as intended on the affected
lines. However, being on windows there is usually a snag, all of the lines
that were not involved in the whitespace cleanup ended up with the infamous
^M windows line endings on them, that's not good.

So, a quick reminder of what perl can do for me solved it nicely.

after running the above, immediately follow it up with :-

$ perl -p -i -e 's/\r//g' locationmap.xml

That gets rid of all windows line endings. A quick 'svn diff' shows now that
only the whitespace affected lines have changed, now I can commit.

Obviously this comes into its own when performed on multiple files so in
both commands above 'locationmap.xml can be replaced with *.xml or whatever
your cleaning up.

HTH

David, if you have time, I'm sure you've tweaked your xmlformat file nicely
for use within forrest, is there more I need to do to my config file other
than alter the indenting? (so I don't come unstuck in larger more
complicated files)


Thanks

Gav...
