...and vise-versa of course. There are several XML parsers for
Applescript.
Any names? (Only ones I know of are XML Tools - pretty powerful, but
outputs skanky list-n-record data structures - and my very
incomplete, non-industrial-strength attempt at a SAX-like library. If
there's others, I'd be interested for details.)
Also, it wouldn't be that hard to write a parser just by
tweaking the HTML parsing code from the GuideBook.
Step 1. Take Guidebook example.
Step 2. Toss Guidebook example in bin.
Step 3. Write a proper parser in AppleScript.
Step 4. Discover it's much harder to do than it sounds.
Step 5. Find finished script (if you actually get this far) is woefully slow.
Step 6. Use Perl or Python instead.
:p
