PyXML is a collection of libraries to process XML with Python.
It effectively extends and updates Python's built-in XML libraries
(the xml.* modules). It contains, among other things:
xmlproc: a validating XML 1.0 parser written in Python
Expat: a nonvalidating XML 1.0 parser written in C, plus Python bindings
PySAX: SAX 1 and SAX2 libraries with drivers for most of the parsers
4DOM: a compliant DOM Level 2 implementation written in Python
javadom: a Java-DOM-implementation-to-standard-Python-DOM adapter
pulldom: a DOM implementation that supports lazy instantiation of nodes
marshal: a module for serializing Python objects to XML formats including
WDDX and XML-RPC
sgmlop: a C helper module that can speed up xmllib (deprecated) & sgmllib
It also provides the latest updates/fixes for minidom (the default
xml.dom.implementation), and includes an XPath 1.0 processor for minidom
(xml.xpath). Experimental XSLT 1.0 support for minidom can be added if the
port is installed with WITH_XSLT defined (e.g. "make install WITH_XSLT=yes").
