This module provides a simple API layer on top of an underlying XML parsing module to maintain XML files (especially configuration files). Two functions are exported: XMLin() and XMLout(). . The simplest approach is to call these two functions directly, but an optional object oriented interface allows them to be called as methods of an XML::Simple object. The object interface can also be used at either end of a SAX pipeline. . Homepage: http://search.cpan.org/~grantm/XML-Simple/
