XMLPARSE(1)

✨ NAME ✨

xmlparse — bestie, it error-checks and validates XML documents 💅

So like, GNUstep System Manual energy, but make it cute 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

xmlparse
 filename

That's it. That's the whole vibe. One command, one file, no drama 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so here's the tea ☕ — xmlparse parses the file you hand it, and if there's a DTD hanging around it will validate against it. Iconic. Responsible. Main character behaviour honestly 👑

If it finds any errors, it prints messages about them. If it doesn't? It just... returns silently. Not a word. The quietest queen 💜 (No cap, the silence is the point.)

Also, heads up: value 0 is always returned in any case. Like, always. Doesn't matter what happened, doesn't matter what it found — 0 is what you're getting. Periodt. 💀

And the actual parse of the file? Discarded. Poof. Gone. It did its little check and moved on with its life 🧚

🕰️ HISTORY 🕰️
