Two Handy XML Tools

I need to e(x)ternalize my new software discoveries before I forget them again :-)

xmllint is something like a Swiss army knife for XML. It can validate a document against a DTD, check if it’s well-formed, reformat it, clean it…

xml_spellcheck does exactly what its name suggests. It extracts text nodes from the XML, feeds them to a spellchecker (aspell by default) and puts the spell-checked text back in place. Tip: you can spell check text in SVG graphics this way :-)

Pardon the brevity of this article, for it serveth as a minuscule reminder to my self in the dark times of the exam term :-)
