The current session file is one line of XML, which is
not very readable. It'd be nice to be able to read the
resulting file without scrolling kilometers to the
right :-).

    Hi,

    Yes, i agree that xml file should be human readable but
    actually i did not find a easy way to handle binary files
    like images.

    T.W.

    this would be great

    what's binary should be left as base64 or hexa
    representation, but issue is with all the other data!

    You could use CDATA to include the (possibly invalid) HTML, and only
    use hex encoding for binary images and the like.

    That and the occasional newline character :-) would make the
    file quite a bit more readable, while still keeping it as valid XML.

    You can use IE or Firefox to read it
