>> Bye bye the entire Unix family of line oriented text processing apps:-( > >Come on, This is a crock. [Discussion about a *single* tool - Perl - from the genus "Unix familiy of line oriented text processing apps" elided] Since when is Perl == Unix family of line oriented text processing apps? The world is littered with s/w tools that have line length limits. These tools are *blown* by WS-less XML. Throw out that grep, that text editor, that fgets(), that diff,sort,uniq utility There all busted for XML use. P.S. "Crock". I'll add that to my collection of spicy ripostes I have had accumulates over the course of this thread.:-) Time to end. If nothing else, David's five paragraphs have been born from this. I suggest they should be mandatory reading for anyone approaching XML development. It is clear that I see a problem that others don't. Thus the odds are I am wrong. I hope so. Sean Mc Grath sean@d...
