Tools
The following are xml tools that were created in perl to simplify common tasks when working with xml.
xmlpp
An XML pretty printer created to format xml that doesn't make use of mixed content. In the default mode each element is put on a separate line with consistent indentation. It can also separate attributes onto individual lines, sort attributes in a specified or alphabetic order, expand self closing tags, and more.
xmlpp uses only perl core modules, and hence will run on most operating systems that have perl installed including Linux and Windows.

xmldiff
xmldiff uses xmlpp and diff to display meaningful differences in xml files in an easy to read format. Output formats available include html, ansi colour, and regular diff. The coloured modes are particularly useful for viewing small differences in context within large xml files.
Requires perl, xmlpp, and diff.
