Changes from 1.5.9.
- Add ability to save and read files as XML. To change a file from standard format to XML, choose File, Save As, and enter a file name with .xml as its type. Toolbox will automatically write the file in XML format. Do not use XML export to do this, because XML export loses formatting, empty fields, and interlinear layout. Once a file has been saved as XML, Toolbox will read and write in that format as long as the file name has .xml as its type. Toolbox uses a "database" XML tag to mark its database. Users can add extra information to a Toolbox XML file before and after the database section, and Toolbox will preserve such information. Such information can include additional structure, such as HTML5 above the opening "database" tag. It can also include XML header lines such as a css style sheet reference. Users are also allowed to add attributes to the "lxGroup" tags inside the database, where "lx" is the record marker. For example, an id could be added to each dictionary entry as "lxGroup id="abc"". Such attributes will be preserved by Toolbox. Toolbox can only read XML files that it has written, not files produced by other programs. Toolbox can read files produced by XML export, but when Toolbox detects that it is opening an XML file that has been exported, it gives a warning that formatting, empty fields, and interliinear layout will be lost.
- Handle XML escaped characters in save and read files as XML.
- Add Cascading Style Sheet option to XML export.
- Remove path from style sheet in XML export.
- Allow .xhtml and .xht as XML file types.
- Handle BOM at top of XML file.
- Fix bug of data link check not handling number at end of word.
- Fix bug of lookup interlinear process showing all output fields in record as ambiguities.
