13 libxo - A Library for Generating Text, XML, JSON, and HTML Output
14 ===================================================================
16 The libxo library allows an application to generate text, XML, JSON,
17 and HTML output, suitable for both command line use and for web
18 applications. The application decides at run time which output style
19 should be produced. By using libxo, a single source code path can
20 emit multiple styles of output using command line options to select
21 the style, along with optional behaviors. libxo includes support for
22 multiple output streams, pluralization, color, syslog,
23 :manpage:`humanized(3)` output, internationalization, and UTF-8. The
24 library aims to minimize the cost of migrating code to libxo.
26 libxo ships as part of FreeBSD.
