Re: Using A Scripting Language To Script Robot Behaviour

I don't know apalrd, have no idea where apalrd is, etc, etc. Apalrd, humans do not write in XML. Humans should NEVER write any form of a language that looks like XML. Humans should never write or read a language that has more punctuation than value.

XML has been foisted on the masses by inept computer people that can not write simple parsers.

way point_x=35
way point_y=8
curve=0
elev_state=knock
speed=14

Much better than XML like brace stuff

XML is for computer to computer stuff. Write in a human language for humans.

And for those of you that write in XML because "chuck" at tool I use dot Borg designed it that way. Check up on Chuck, he may have gone "missing" There is a world wide stamp out of XML by people in action.
