Also thanks for all the constructive input.

The "porkiness" of XML is only a factor with large volumes of data.
It would be entirely appropriate to use in this application.

The end user should have no need to look at the XML file, the software you
use will do this for you via a fine user-friendly UI irrespective of the
platform you are using.
An XML file is very easy to edit with Notepad or the editor of your choice.

I think you guys have to look at some recent history. Even in this day

For example ADIF and Cabrillo files (LOTW and contest logging programs)
These are not necessarily small files. ADIF files do have the "tags"

When the memory channel CAT is defined I'll add this and other new features
to HRD.
I agree 100% that XML is the way to go, would be great for interchange.
As soon as Wayne specs the CAT let's define the XML. I'm using XML
exclusively in my new software and will convert HRD over to XML when I
Hi Guys,
This XML idea is great...I could make a webpage and application ( hosted on
my server (or Elecraft's)) where you could go to a webpage, upload your
config, mess about with it and download
it, then, instead of having loads of programs all over the world - possibly
needing updates, if the
If you've seen HTML its somewhat similar. XML is like HTML but with
more stringent rules. Its VERY human readable and quite simple to work
with. As far as the argument that it results in large files people are
living in the past. Broadband is becoming more and more common place
and USB sticks a
I would vote for XML as well. It's porky, but it's
human readable, it's universal and well supported
by many applications and frameworks, and one can
easily edit it by hand with Notepad or Emacs or
whatever.

What is XML?
I looked it up it is "Extensible Markup Language (XML)"
I still do not know what to do with it.
Oh well, another language to learn. It does keep the mind working.

Agreed XML could be a good way to set things up. As well it would be
helpful for Elecraft in the future as if you're having trouble they can
ask you to send in your config and they can quickly open it and find
problems if they're in there.
I was kinda hoping that when I read the config out of my
