1 Libxml2 is the XML C parser and toolkit developed for the Gnome project
2 (but usable outside of the Gnome platform), it is free software available
3 under the MIT License.
4 XML itself is a metalanguage to design markup languages, i.e. text language
5 where semantic and structure are added to the content using extra "markup"
6 information enclosed between angle brackets.
7 HTML is the most well-known markup language.
8 Though the library is written in C a variety of language bindings make it
9 available in other environments.
11 Libxml2 is known to be very portable, the library should build and work without
12 serious troubles on a variety of systems (Linux, Unix, Windows, CygWin, MacOS,
13 MacOS X, RISC Os, OS/2, VMS, QNX, MVS, VxWorks, ...)
