Hi, all. I've been lurking on the pcgen list for a couple of weeks, looking for a good way to contribute, but all I've posted so far is a note about a little...
Could someone post their idea of what an XML .LST file would like? It doesn't have to be full file, just the heading and one or two items... Dennis ...

... This is something one of the guys on the D20 XML list came up with for a spell list. It's an extract from the D20 SRD. I suspect that what we come up with...

Here's one I came up with for my custom money work. <coins region="RegionName"> <coin name="Platinum" abbr="pp" factor="500" weight="0.2"/> <coin name="Gold"...
I don't know much about what is and what is not parser friendly but I do know that example is fairly easy to read and understand. I think name and type could...

No so much friendly as more efficient. Most parsers are apparently optimized to handle attributes rather than elements with text bodies. While I agree that...
Yes, optimization will be an issue, but we need to keep in mind joe user as well. It has to be _REALLY_ easy for them to edit the information. As a note, I...

... Yep, but one nice thing about XML is that when we get to the point where there is a Schema, writing an editor that uses it will be moderately less complex....
Hello everyone! Have been using PCGen for quite some time, really like it, though on thing that irritated me was that I couldnt easily add my own magic ...
1) That's exactly what I meant, just didn't explain it very well. ;p So we see eye-to-eye on that. :D 2) Going through the list files, hmm.., never heard of...
... Well, one of the advantages of XML is that as long as you conform to the (reasonably strict, more so than HTML) rules[1], any parser should be able to...
Howdy, all. Took a few days to get added. As far as attributes vs elements, I reserve attributes for metadata whenever possible. DTD's liked attributes, but...

... And less typing, too. At this point, I'm leaning toward having the various lists being resources used to define others. For example (and counter to your ...
