Canonicalise(1)

✨ Canonicalise(1) — the User Commands bestie 🎀

💖 NAME 💖

Okay so this is the page for Canonicalise and CanonicaliseLazy 🦋. They're both cat-style filters for XML documents, bestie 🌸

---

🧚 SYNOPSIS 🧚

Canonicalise [ file ]
CanonicaliseLazy [ file ]

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Okay so Canonicalise reads an XML document from a file or from the standard input, then parses it and pretty-prints it using the HaXml library 💅 It's giving tidy and organised ✨

CanonicaliseLazy does the exact same vibe: reads, parses, and pretty-prints the XML document 🫶 The difference is that it parses with the lazy parser combinators, while Canonicalise uses the non-lazy ones. 😭 That means CanonicaliseLazy parses the document faster and uses less memory than Canonicalise. Highkey obsessed 🔥

Both of them show the standard parsing and pretty-printing behaviour of the HaXml library, so no weird surprises, periodt 🍓
