  Not sure of any other XPath-on-streams freaks, let me know of any.

  Will take a look at that toolkit when next I dive in to EventPath implementation (see XML::Filter::Dispatcher [cpan.org] for that, those of you interested in streaming XPath implementations).

  Thanks for the pointer.

    Hand raised, waving frantically

    It has been in my todo list for ever... maybe between ripping the XPAth grammar from XML::Filter::Dispatcher and this I can write something really cool for XML::Twig.

    I'd bet on you getting there first though ;--(

      Couldn't you go at it the lazy way and build that Twig functionality layered over XFD?

        Here's how X::F::D does its pale immitation of TWIG-like things:

           '/*/b' => [ 'hash()'   => sub { use BFD; d xvalue } ],
           '/*/c' => [ 'struct()' => sub { use BFD; d xvalue } ],

        Those two will print out hashes (returned by xvalue()) for each <b> and <c> in the root element. Mind you, this isn't meant to look pretty or replace XML::TWIG, it's meant to provide limited TWIG-like functionality in the X::F::D environment so you can conveniently slurp a tw

          (mind you, I pasted the wrong XML in there. Ignore the namespaces, that's from a different test).

          Sorry,
