includes main-level program

MG_XML_BROWSER is a widget program to browse the contents of an XML file (either a local file or an URL).

Both local files and URLs can be accessed. For example, to load an example XML file that comes with IDL, do:

 planets = filepath('planets.xml', subdir=['examples', 'data'])
 mg_xml_browser, planets

This should result in something like:

To browse an XML file from the Internet, try:

 url = 'http://michaelgalloy.com/feed'
 mg_xml_browser, url, /url

This should result in something like:

mg_xml_browser, filename [, /url]

Start a widget program to browse an XML file.

filename in required type=string

filename or URL to browse

url in optional type=boolean: set to specify an URL instead of a local filename for the filename positional parameter
