Prebuilt binaries for Windows of XMLgawk are available from:
http://lml.ls.fi.upm.es/~mcollado/xmlgawk/
FYI:
AWK is a simple, yet powerful language for processing text data line by line. Gawk is an extended GNU implementation of AWK.
XMLgawk is an enhanced version of gawk that can process XML files as well as text files. XMLgawk uses the Expat parser to read input XML files. Each token parsed by Expat is passed to the user's code as an input record.
XMLgawk is used exactly the same way as gawk. It's backward compatible with gawk, so the enhanced version can also be used for regular gawk processing of text files.
To process a XML input file the new predefined variable XMLMODE must be set to "1". Doing so, the next processed file will be parsed as XML instead of plain text. XMLMODE is usually set in a BEGIN clause. To learn more about XMLgawk usage, please read documentation available from the developers' websites.
Enjoy!
