Good pointer - look forward to reading the docs when I get a moment.
Had a quick scan, but I don't think it will help me xmlwise, but it
will take the drudgery out of a few other tasks.

I've mentioned in a previous post that I'm slightly fed up with
editing
xml files, even with a fancy editor. I though I might knock up a
stylesheet that will enable me to write a short hand for example:
project
modelVersion 4.0.0
groupId com.acme
dependencies
dependency
groupId servletapi
dependency
groupId ejbapi
In other words tabs are important and should map nicely to begin and
end tags. With a little magic the one-one map would mean I don't
even
need to keep a separate file since it's just a view on an
existing xml
file.
Question is: has anyone had this idea before and where can I
download
it?
Thanks

Ashley, way off topic dude! ;-)
AFAIK are many efforts at producing markup more minimal than XML. I
remember reading an article some years ago that listed between 4
and 6
different candidates, with a short discussion concerning each.
Just looked
for and couldn't identify or locate anything that looked similar,
but try
googling for YAML and then stand back. There are parsers and
integrations
for at least perl, python and ruby. This is not a recommendation,
just a
suggestion about a starting point.
Good luck
