Well, I would not say so.  You need an XML library for this to be true
in that specific language.  I've never used one (I never understood
the XML hype and the point about XML -- my general syntax for data was
always Lisp).

If I succeed in using an XML library for C++ on the machine I write
this on (I don't see why not :-)), I'll provide the data in XML -- the
syntax as such is easy, but I will need the check it, of course.
