[Tutor] xml question

[Albert-Jan Roskam]

Hi,

I am making a data processing program that will use a configuration file. The file should contain information about: (1) source files used, (2) (intermediate) output files, (3) used parameters/estimation methods (4) manual data edits + datetime stamp + user name . I'd like to store this config file in xml. However, I've never created something like this before. Is this a suitable format, and, if so, what would the elementtree look like? Should I just use 'config'  or something similar as root, and the information elements 1 through 3 as child elements? And should the manual edits be stored as an element 'edit' with various attributes (the edit itself, the time stamp, etc.)?

Cheers!!

Albert-Jan

All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?
