text - > XML Converter

[martin.kiuru]

Hi everyone !

I need to write a program, which converts some txt format to well
formed XML. txt format has some escape codes - for instance \b must be
replaced by <b> in XML. Sownd pretty easy, but unfortunately my
competence in Java is about zero. Could anybody help me with code or at
least very similar example ?

Thanks !

I need to write a program,

Why? For school, for work?

.... Sownd pretty easy, but unfortunately my
competence in Java

Why not write it in Perl? Why Java?

..is about zero.

If it is for school you will need to hit the books,
read the tutorials, generate some code and ask a
specific question.

If it is for work you will either have to do the above,
or Google for a 'plug-in' that does it for you.
Alternately - if you 'do not have the time', you might
think about hiring someone to do it for you.
