I'm using ConTeXt's export to XML feature, but I'd like more control
over the XML output. Is there a way to define a TeX command that will
output a specific tag (<tag>content</tag>) around some text in the output?
\setupbackend[export=yes]
\definehighlight[this]
\starttext
\startelement[what]
\this{that} \input ward
\stopelement
\stoptext
(there are also ways to add extra properties)
Ideally I'd like to write a completely custom XML printer; it would be
very simple, but would allow me to define what tags I want for different
things. Is there a way to change the behaviour of the existing one, or
could you recommend a starting point for writing a new one?
the export resembles the structure used in the source and making each
aspect configurable not only adds much overhead but is also kind of
useless as one can easily transform xml into other xml; it's no problem
to add a few more details here or there , but th emain indea behind the
export is to have standardized and predictable output that then can be
either rendered using css or converted (for that the raw file is best).
