            Yes, strictly it's a tokenizer. I stand corrected. I called it parser because the damn thing is more than 50% of the XML parsers I write using it. Because to me a general purpose XML parser makes little sense. It just translates from one tree representation to another. And there is a zillion possible target representations. DOM, Yaml, many database languages, Booch containers, Ada 2005 containers, iterators, combinations thereof... I leave the choice to application time. And then what I need is a tokenizer. A straighforward, simple, effective, usable, robust, superfast one :-)
