Yes...

It would be great.

... Means - some functionality (for me to test or to play with) might be available tomorrow morning?

BTW, I prepared a really-simple-XML-test which shows XML -> Lua table/tree conversion, which I'd like to achieve (and which (approx.) provides LuaXml lib).

---- XML
<a aaa="AAA">
   <b bbb="B1"/>
   <b bbb="B2">
     c
   </b>
</a>
----

---- Lua representation
{ [0] = "a", -- Element name
   { [0] = "b", -- Element name
     -- No nested members
     bbb = "B1", -- Atts
   },
   { [0] = "b", -- Element name
     { "c", }, -- Nested member
     bbb = "B2", -- Atts
   },
   aaa = "AAA", -- Atts
}
----

Thanks again.

Best regards,

Lukas
