There are a variety of ways to do this.... sed, awk, "standard" Unix commands....
Exactly where do you want to insert your Parameter blocks in your file? Always after the <?xml and <config lines? i.e. line 3 onwards?
Cheers

HISTORY
The GNU shtool subst command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 2001 for GNU shtool. It was prompted
by the need to have a uniform and convenient patching frontend to sed(1) operations in the OpenPKG package specifications.

shtool(1), sed(1).
