I once wrote a generic XML scanner which produces output similar to what you want. It produces columns from tags in a generic way without hardcoding tags/attributes. It has a weakness in that it can't handle spaces inside tag attributes.

Getting those two 'env' tags into one can be done with sed.

Code:
$ cat xmlg.awk
BEGIN { RS="<";         FS=">"; ORS="\r\n";

        # Change this to alter how many close-tags in a row are needed
        # before a row of data is printed.
        DEP=1
        SEP="\t"
        }

# Skip weird XML specification lines or blank records
/^\?/ || /^$/   {       next    }

# Handle close tags
/^[/]/  {
        N=D;    while((N>0) && ("/"STACK[N] != $1))     N--;

        if("/"STACK[N] == $1)   D=(N-1);
        POP++;

        if(POP == DEP)
        {
                if(!HEADER++)
                {
                        split(ARG[1], Z, SUBSEP);
                        printf("%s %s", Z[2], Z[3]);
                        for(N=2; N<=ARG_; N++)
                        {
                                split(ARG[N], Z, SUBSEP);
                                printf("%s%s %s", SEP, Z[2], Z[3]);
                        }

                        printf("\n");
                }

                printf("%s", DATA[ARG[1]]);
                for(N=2; N<=ARG_; N++)
                        printf("%s%s", SEP, DATA[ARG[N]]);
                printf("\n");
        }
        next
}

# Handle open tags
{
        gsub(/^[ \r\n\t]*/, "", $2);    # Whitespace isn't data
        gsub(/[ \r\n\t]*$/, "", $2);
        sub(/\/$/, "", $(NF-1));

        # Reset parameters
        POP=0;

        M=split($1, A, " ");
        STACK[++D]=A[1];

        if((!MAX) || (D>MAX)) MAX=D;    # Save max depth

        # Handle parameters
        Q=split(A[2], B, " ");
        for(N=1; N<=Q; N++)
        {
                split(B[N], C, "=");
                gsub(/['"]/,"", C[2]);

                I=D SUBSEP STACK[D] SUBSEP C[1];
                if(!SEEN[I]++)
                        ARG[++ARG_]=I;

                DATA[I]=C[2];
        }

        if($2)

EVOLVOTRON_MUTATE(1)						    Evolvotron						      EVOLVOTRON_MUTATE(1)

NAME
evolvotron_mutate - Render an evolvotron function tree to an image. SYNOPSIS
evolvotron_mutate < function_in.xml > function_out.xml evolvotron_mutate -g > function_out.xml DESCRIPTION
evolvotron_mutate either mutates an existing image function (saved to an XML file), or (with the -g option) creates a new image function. The mutation parameters and function weightings are the same as used by evolvotron in its default reset state. See the evolvotron user manual (accessible from the evolvotron application's Help menu) for more information on image functions. COMMANDLINE OPTIONS
-g Specifies that no function should be read from standard input. The output function is created at random. EXAMPLES
evolvotron_mutate -g | tee function0.xml | evolvotron_render function0.ppm evolvtron_mutate < function0.xml > function1.xml AUTHOR
