	8 .SH DESCRIPTION
	9 .PP
	10 xml2tsv is a simple tool to convert XML given on standard input to a lis…
	11 tab-separated-values records. Each XML entry is converted to a line
	12 like:
	13 .EX
	14
	15 /full/path/to/current/entry[TAB]attr1=value1[TAB]attr2=value2[TAB]..…
	16
	17 .EE
	18 where
	19 .I "/full/path/to/current/entry"
	20 represents the full hierarchy of entries down to the current one. For
	21 instance, the XML snippet:
	22 .EX
	23
	24 <html>
	25 <head>
	26 <title>This is a title</title>
	27 </head>
	28 <body>
	29 <h1>It works!</h1>
	30 <a href="https://my.wonderful.website.net">Click here</a>
	31 </body>
	32 </html>
	33
	34 .EE
	35 will produce the output:
	36 .EX
	37
	38 /html
	39 /html/head
	40 /html/head/title This is a title
	41 /html/body
	42 /html/body/h1 It works!
	43 /html/body/a href=https://my.wonderful.website.net Click here
	44
	45 .EE
	46 By default, xml2tsv quotes '\\n', '\\t', and '\\', and strips other
	47 control characters.
	48 .SH CONFIGURATION
	49 The maximum length of an entry name and the maximum depth of an entry
	50 are fixed to STR_MAX and DEPTH_MAX, and can be changed by editing the
	51 file
	52 .BI config.h
	53 and rebuilduing xml2tsv. It is also possible to change the separator
	54 used on output (SEP, by default set to '\\t'), and the character used to
	55 separate the name of an attribute from its value (SATTR, by default set
	56 to '=').
	57 .SH BUGS
	58
	59 xml2tsv currently lacks an option to force printing control characters
	60 on output, if desired.
