Warning: there is a reason why people pointed you to XML::Twig and the like. That's because parsing XML is hard. This may make it look easy, but it won't work unless the data is formatted to one tag per line, and no tags are allowed to span lines. Which may work today, but may not tomorrow. XML::Twig will handle it either way, GrandFather's solution will not. This isn't a slight on GrandFather's perl skill - you asked for something that didn't involve XML::Twig, and that's what he did. I just don't want you going out, using it, and then coming back and complaining about GrandFather's supposed lack of coding skill when it doesn't work. It works for the example given, you just need to know its assumptions.	[reply]

Thank you Tanktalus. I intended to say pretty much exactly that and to point out the implicit assumptions concerning the data behind the code, then posted the code in a hurry. Perl is Huffman encoded by design.	[reply]
