If you do an identity transform in Saxon, with schema-validated input
and indented output, then it will do indentation of elements with
element-only content, and no indentation of elements with mixed content.
I think. But I might think wrong, because I'm on vacation.

Hi,
I have a some very large XML source files. Each is are currently formatted
as one long string (ie no line breaks).
I need to add some processing instructions at various points in the file but
I don't want to introduce any significant whitespace in the process of doing
so.
I have XMLSpy but it does not seem to be capable of doing a schema-aware
"pretty-print".
A web search seems to indicate that OXygen is capable of doing an
intelligent pretty-print (the information I found is in the context of XHTML
but I assume it's more generalized than that??), however, I can't really
justify buying it just for that.
If needs be, I can write an XSLT to parse a DTD, classify each element as
"inline", "mixed", "block" or "empty" and then do an identity transform
against my XML source files inserting line-breaks and leading tabbing as
required.
I am wondering if anyone else has any other suggestions for me?
Thanks,
Murray
