There is no other way than what you have already found out: use a different file and then move the new file over the old file.
The reason for this
i have described here and in some other postings too - i don't want to repeat it.
Btw., a suggestion: stay away from GNU-seds "-i" switch: it will just make your script less portable, but will do nothing else than do the "mv"-operation automatically afterwards.
I hope this helps.

graphviz::xml
GraphViz::XML(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation GraphViz::XML(3pm)
NAME
GraphViz::XML - Visualise XML as a tree
SYNOPSIS
use GraphViz::XML;
my $graph = GraphViz::XML->new($xml);
print $g->as_png;
DESCRIPTION
This module makes it easy to visualise XML as a tree. XML is hard for humans to grasp, especially if the XML is computer-generated. This
modules aims to visualise the XML as a graph in order to make the structure of the XML clear and to aid in understanding the XML.
XML elements are represented as diamond nodes, with links to elements within them. Character data is represented in round nodes.
Note that the XML::Twig module should be installed.
METHODS
new
This is the constructor. It takes one mandatory argument, which is the XML to be visualised. A GraphViz object is returned.
my $graph = GraphViz::XML->new($xml);
as_*
The XML can be visualised in a number of different graphical formats. Methods include as_ps, as_hpgl, as_pcl, as_mif, as_pic, as_gd,
as_gd2, as_gif, as_jpeg, as_png, as_wbmp, as_ismap, as_imap, as_vrml, as_vtx, as_mp, as_fig, as_svg. See the GraphViz documentation for
more information. The two most common methods are:
# Print out a PNG-format file
print $g->as_png;
# Print out a PostScript-format file
print $g->as_ps;
BUGS
GraphViz tends to reorder the nodes. I hope to find a work around soon (possibly with ports).
