    What is the size of the file you're welling to convert? If not many I would
    write you a piece of code that will do this for you.

    Subject: [Corpora-List] Looking for a XML to TEXT convertor/editor

    Dear List Members,

    For my dissertation research, I will need to convert several corpus files in

    XML format into TEXT, so that I can process these files with some of the
    programs for linguistic analysis that we have here at NAU, all of which are
    designed to process text files (with line breaks).

    So, I am looking for a good, user-friendly XML to TEXT convertor or editor
    and
    was wondering if anyone knows of any or has used any that they would
    recommend.

    So far I've tried to use the XML FoxAdvance (available at
    http://xmlfox.com/index.htm). However I've had no luck with the trial
    version
    of this program and the support has been unhelpful (they suggested that I
    try
    some other product by some of their competitors...).

    I would appreciate any suggestions and I will post a summary if there is
    interest.

    Thanks!

    Federica Barbieri
