Cannot open an XML files content but with different file extension =(
Very fast and that's good to have all the selectors paradigms available.
An additional light theme would be appreciated for people who do not use dark themes.
Does not process XML automatically. Had to select all and send to extension with right-click menu.
Processed only 200 lines of XML
