* Greg pointed out that the XML produced by bs1170gain might not be correct because certain chracters appearing in a file names need to be escaped. In order to avoid this he proposed a CDATA section. * Unfortunately, CDATA is not possible in attribute values. Hence this approach could only be succsesfully introduced by moving the file name out of the attribute and make it a full fletched entity. * In order to make a transition as smooth as possible an optional argument was introduced to command line argument "--xml" activating the CDATA approach: --xml[=cdata]?
