I'd suggest trying XML::LibXML before you finalize your decision
to stick with XML::Parser -- not the least reason being that
::LibXML depends on libxml2, which a gtk+ system is likely to
have. Of course libxml2 is also a damn great XML library besides.
::Parser wraps expat, which is a separate dependency and not
nearly as nice to work with, being that it was written at a time
before all the relevant XML standard specs were set in stone (ie
as far as I'm concerned, expat and thus the whole ::Parser family
is kind of obsolete (maybe I should write XML::Simple::LibXML)).
