Hello,
I want to be able to browse the XML files produced by Ketarin. XML Copy Editor is good for this, as I can fold all tags and unfold individual ones. But I'd like to hide lots of details while showing just particular tags. The structure of these XML files is:
<applicationjob>
lots of tags, some of which contain subtags called <name>
<name>the name of this ApplicationJob</name>
</name></applicationjob>
I would like to be able to fold up all the records, and then unfold just the top-level <name> tags. Then I would like to be able to reveal one or two of the internal tags.
The ideal display would be
lineno [+] <name>7-Zip 64 (ZH)
lineno [+] <name>7-Zip x86 (ZH)
lineno [+] <name>Adapt It (Mac)
lineno [+] <name>Adapt It (Windows)
lineno [+] <name>Aeneas for matching text and audio exe file</name></name></name></name></name></name>
Then for whichever record I wanted to look at, I would click the + and the whole record would unfold.
The following display would also be OK:
lineno [+] <applicationjob><name>7-Zip 64 (ZH)
lineno [+] <applicationjob><name>7-Zip x86 (ZH)
lineno [+] <applicationjob><name>Adapt It (Mac)
lineno [+] <applicationjob><name>Adapt It (Windows)
lineno [+] <applicationjob><name>Aeneas for matching text and audio exe file</name></applicationjob></name></applicationjob></name></applicationjob></name></applicationjob></name></applicationjob>
Is there a way I can ask XML Copy Editor to behave like that?
I tried an Xpath to do this, but I have never used it before, and couldn't figure out from the tutorial how to get the syntax right.
Or you may know of some other program that can do something like what I want. (It could also be a Linux program.)
Hoping you can help me,
Jim
