| """Core XML support for Python. |
| |
| This package contains four sub-packages: |
| |
| dom -- The W3C Document Object Model. This supports DOM Level 1 + |
| Namespaces. |
| |
| parsers -- Python wrappers for XML parsers (currently only supports Expat). |
| |
| sax -- The Simple API for XML, developed by XML-Dev, led by David |
| Megginson and ported to Python by Lars Marius Garshol. This |
| supports the SAX 2 API. |
| |
| etree -- The ElementTree XML library. This is a subset of the full |
| ElementTree XML release. |
