Re: [rfc-i] line wrapping in XML

[Martin Thomson <[e-mail]>]

You can configure tidy to preserve whitespace in certain elements, so it seems like a viable option.

 <option class="TidyMarkupTeach">
  <name>new-pre-tags</name>
  <type>Tag Names</type>
  <default />
  <example>tagX, tagY, ...</example>
  <description>This option specifies new tags that are to be processed in exactly the same way as HTML's <code>&lt;pre&gt;</code> element. This option takes a space or comma separated list of tag names. <br/>Unless you declare new tags, Tidy will refuse to generate a tidied file if the input includes previously unknown tags. <br/>Note you cannot as yet add new CDATA elements. <br/>This option is ignored in XML mode. </description>
  <seealso>new-blocklevel-tags</seealso>
  <seealso>new-empty-tags</seealso>
  <seealso>new-inline-tags</seealso>
  <seealso>custom-tags</seealso>
    <eqconsole />
 </option>

-- from `tidy -xml-config`
