Well, I guess I don't mind XML as long as I don't have to look at it.
XML-RPC is one example I'm perfectly happy with.  You could call it
Martian-RPC and I might not have known the difference.  Still, I suspect
you're correct that it's more the libraries than the '<'s and '>'s that give
me fits.

Thanks, an existence proof of a correct solution makes me less concerned
about hacking around the current problem.
