Thanks for this article. I have been looking for this type of functionality for a while and thought I would have to roll my own. Now I can return to being lazy!

    You might also take a look at this one (XmlStarlet Command Line XML Toolkit)


    http://xmlstar.sourceforge.net/


    The toolkit's feature set includes options to:



    Check or validate XML files (simple well-formedness check, DTD, XSD, RelaxNG)


    Calculate values of XPath expressions on XML files (such as running sums, etc)


    Search XML files for matches to given XPath expressions


    Apply XSLT stylesheets to XML documents (including EXSLT support, and passing parameters to stylesheets)


    Query XML documents (ex. query for value of some elements of attributes, sorting, etc)


    Modify or edit XML documents (ex. delete some elements)


    Format or "beautify" XML documents (as changing indentation, etc)


    Fetch XML documents using http:// or ftp:// URLs


    Browse tree structure of XML documents (in similar way to 'ls' command for directories)


    Include one XML document into another using XInclude


    XML c14n canonicalization


    Escape/unescape special XML characters in input text


    Print directory as XML document


    Convert XML into PYX format (based on ESIS - ISO 8879)

      I'm new at xmlstarlet. I'm running under windows XP.
      I used the following line to edit the value of @filename attribute.
      xml ed -u "/KLAMATH/ENCODESESSION/MEDIAOUTPUT/FILEMEDIA/@filepath" -v c:/wd_tel2 eos3dr1_device0_drc1500.prj


      The output indicates that the attribute value has changed. However the original file did not change. How do I save my changes that I made via the xml ed commmand?


      Can you help or direct me to some info?


      Thanks
