Use Ruby:

Code:
$out_count = 0

def process( str )

  str.strip!
  continent,country,city,id = str[1..-2].split(/","/)

  $out_count += 1
  File.open( "output_#{ $out_count }.xml", "w" ){|handle|

    handle.puts <<"HERE_DOC"
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE ALR [
        <!ENTITY gt "&amp;gt;">
        <!ENTITY lt "&amp;lt;">
        <!ENTITY quot "&amp;quot;">

<datafile>
        <info ID="#{ id }">
                <info1>#{ continent }</info1>
                <info2> </info2>
                <info3>#{ country }</info3>
                <info4>#{ city }</info4>
                <info5>some fixed data</info5>
                <info6> </info6>

                <info8>some fixed data</info8>
                <info9>some fixed data</info9>
                <info10>some fixed data</info10>
                <info11>some fixed data</info11>
        </info>
        <action>
                <attributes>
                        <attributkey id="011" >N</attributkey>
                        <attributkey id="106" >N</attributkey>
                        <attributkey id="114" >N</attributkey>
                        <attributkey id="119" >N</attributkey>
                </attributes>
                <comment> </comment>
        </action>
</datafile>
HERE_DOC

  }
end


# Discard 1st line of file.
gets

# Read rest of file.
while gets
  process( $_ )
end
