You can try the Import Text File command in Altova's xmlspy 5 to convert a
structured text file into XML. Download a trial from http://www.xmlspy.com.

Hi
I need help on converting the following text file into xml. I have no clue
where to start or what to do.

The description file refers to handlers like:

FileNameNotify
LoadButtonNotify
ImageMagnificationNotify
ColorApplyButtonNotify
ColorResetButtonNotify
QuitButtonNotify

You can represent these simply by a function/method taking no
parameters
but printing out its own name to standard output when called.

Please let me know if it doesn't work or there is something you are
uncertain about.
