EasyXML

EasyXML is an application to make my work easier.

I often use XML files, logs, parts of XML… More often XML is not well formatted for reading (indentations, folding ect.) Usually I did it this way:

  • select XML fragment
  • copy an XML fragment to a clipboard
  • open notepad (or sth similar)
  • paste from clipboard and save it as a file
  • find a file and open it in any program that can format XML

Then I tried small Vim script which formatted pasted text. It worked well but it was also too long for me.
So, I created this small application and now I only need two steps (when EasyXML is running) to see formatted XML:

  • select XML fragment you are interested
  • hit a hotkey

… and you have your XML formatted and opened in your favourite editor :)

Feel free to use it. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

You may need a VC++ redistributable pack to run EasyXML - download it here

My friend created similar application in the same time I created mine. XmlFellow, which has some additional interesting functions. It’s written in C# so you need .NET Framework 2.0 - it’s worth a shot.
