Most of my .leo files have nothing but @thin nodes in them, so the actual .leo file is small. I'll keep this in mind, though. I suspect some Leo users have very large .leo files.

Cases like this make me lose my faith in xml bit by bit. Hmm. Clearly, the problem we are discussing arises because old versions of Leo did not create proper xml files. It's not clear to me that sax (or any other parser) can reliably recovers from unexpected characters in the input. The problem may be hard, given that unicode is involved :-) OTOH, it would seem feasible to attempt error recovery in when parse_leo_file when xml.sax.SAXParseException is thrown. We could strip ctrl characters from the input, then pass the cleaned text back to sax. I'll create a bug for this, and experiment.

Re: more issues - losing data in files
New versions of leo should strip those characters on write, it was probably saved with old version of leo. Cases like this make me lose my faith in xml bit by bit. I have some preliminary sketches in my head for using either sqlite or zip files as tnode storage. This would also help small memory systems (read: phones), where only visited tnodes would be actually loaded to memory. It would also speed up saving of big files, as only changed nodes (and the outline xml) would need to be written. for what it's worth, and it probably would do nothing to prevent choking on embedded control characters, there is an open source library for binary xml which might help with perfofmance on large filse: a straightforward, open, patent-unencumbered binary-encoding format for XML data that is a stand-alone work-alike drop-in replacement for an XML file that mirrors the XML markup structures in a way that is similar to the in-memory representations of many parser libraries -- http://www.cubewerx.com/bxml cheers, -- -matt --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups leo-editor group.

Re: more issues - losing data in files
May they all be this easy. This is one of those RTFM situations where I'm going to have to contribute all my pocket change to the kitty. That document had some text I imported from a report file that had form feed characters in each header. I had to delete the Ctrl-L characters and it was then okay. Thanks a lot Ed. --KC On Oct 6, 3:03 pm, Edward K.
