How useful would it be to modders if there were a tool to convert raws to XML and back? I'm working on a raws parser for no reason in particular and thought I should make it useful.

I could see that as being useful for mod-maker-makers.

I seem to recall that such a tool already exists. A quick search turns up this and this, and there's probably more.

Why would you need XML for DF Tokens?
I guess if you were writing a program that could read/write to XML but for some reason not square brackets, it'd be helpful, but idk.

Also, what are you writing it in, and will you release the source code? lol

Raw Explorer actually has an internally implemented Raw Parser.  It parses in to a strongly typed object model rather than XML.  If there is interest I could package that up and release it as a library for others.  I'm not sure what language your's would be, but this would work with anything .NET based.
