ok. I promise that this my last post on this subject :)
about this. The simple fact of the matter is that there was no way to make everyone happy so the devs chose a layout that might be "ugly" to some. The key is that XML isn't really "pretty" anyway. The point of XML is that it needs to be machine readable AND human readable. Since humans are (usually) smarter than machines it was decided that machine readable is more important.
I like XML actually. IMHO xml with good editor and schema... there is nothing better for config writer. -- greetings, Seweryn
