   SLN/VCPROJ are XML, but are MUCH harder for humans to read and edit due to 
the
widespread use of numeric enums "1", "2", "3" where DSP used understandable IDs 
like
"GENERATEDEBUGINFO" "DONTGENERATEDEBUGINFO".

Alas XML is widely abused, seeming to be little more than a data
structure dump from packages like Visual Studio and Xcode - they are
seem almost to be written in a form to hinder readability and
interoperability.  Good XML aids interoperability, but alas XML on its
own doesn't make things easier :-|
