There wasn't anything in DOM 2.0, and that is what XML/Ada implements. I think
provision for writting out the tree has been added to DOM 3.0, but I haven't
had time to look into that, and ACT hasn't had any request for this extended
operations so far. So this is quite low on my priority list.

Of course, I would be happy to look at patches or suggestions (thanks Steve for
all you already sent, even if it hasn't been integrated yet... GPS is currently
higher on the list)


There is a small debug function in XML/Ada (something like Print, I think),
that is used for the internal testsuite. You might want to take a look at that
as a starting point.
