Thanks for that, Robert. I'm going to run this for a while on my development
system--I'll let you know how I get on.

Incidentally, looking through the source on CVS, I noticed this method
definition in org.apache.ecs.ConcreteElement:

public void output(Writer out)
    {
        output ( new PrintWriter(out) );
    }

This looks like a bug--since PrintWriter buffers output, doesn't it need to
be flushed? As in:

public void output(Writer out)
    {
        PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(out);
        output (pw);
        pw.flush();
    }

I'm just thinking this might cause problems as pretty much all the element
classes inherit this method.

- Rob
