It's very scriptable because it's just a text document delimited with
<tags> (similar to HTML). This means that Applescript can be used to
create the text document. Simply iterate through a buffer of data,
adding the necessary tags. This is the advantage of an XML (and SOAP)
based documents in any scripting language.

I've been AppleScripting for a while now, but I know nothing about XML
or its significance. How does XML based documents lead to
"Scriptability" for Keynote?
I guess I just don't get this XML thing. What gives?
