If you need to interoperate with a service that consumes or emits
XML, or for some other reason have need to write "XML in KDL", we
have XiK, an official microsyntax for losslessly encoding XML.

I started the day yesterday looking for an Invisible XML parser for use
on XiK, but I just ended up wondering why Invisible XML software is so
invisible.

Is there such a thing as an Invisible XML parser for XiK?

In the meantime, I hacked together a REx EBNF for XiK.  The generated
parser doesn't blow up on the one XiK example in the KDL repository, so
it must be correct, right?

Tony Graham.
