XML is a standard for +markup-based structured documents. Here is an example XML +document:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
+<EXAMPLE prop1="gnome is great" prop2="&amp; linux too">
+  <head>
+   <title>Welcome to Gnome</title>
+  </head>
+  <chapter>
+   <title>The Linux adventure</title>
+   <p>bla bla bla ...</p>
+   <image href="linus.gif"/>
+   <p>...</p>
+  </chapter>
+</EXAMPLE>

The first line specifies that it is an XML document and gives useful +information about its encoding. Then the rest of the document is a text +format whose structure is specified by tags between brackets. Each +tag opened has to be closed. XML is pedantic about this. However, if +a tag is empty (no content), a single tag can serve as both the opening and +closing tag if it ends with /> rather than with +>. Note that, for example, the image tag has no content (just +an attribute) and is closed by ending the tag with />.

XML can be applied successfully to a wide range of tasks, ranging from +long term structured document maintenance (where it follows the steps of +SGML) to simple data encoding mechanisms like configuration file formatting +(glade), spreadsheets (gnumeric), or even shorter lived documents such as +WebDAV where it is used to encode remote calls between a client and a +server.
