That was the impression I was getting when I looked it over. And if
its to put the XUI standard used in V1, that's unsuitable (eg. one
line per control), and the same effect could be done more conveniently
with existing XML utilities. V1 formatted XUI was far worse to work with.

I couldn't find any documented standard for XML. The one I'm using is
based on observation of new XUI that has consistent formatting.
Keyword there is 'consistent', which most of it largely isn't.

It has, but there's a lot of the old XUI from the v2.0 rush period and
lots of patching of it in the fallowing couple years.


I think I'll continue with the one I'm working on instead of trying to
resurrect the viewer's one. Cleaning out unused params is pretty
minor, to me, right now. As far as verification, I'm just going to use
an XML lib and compare tables.
