If you iknow it does not damage the xml, you can force a line feed before every <, so all tags start on the front of one line and end on the front of a subsequent one. Parsing such a file with text tools is now much simpler.

Damage occurs if there is a literal string inside elements, perhaps an encoded LOB, that is corrupted by adding a trailing line feed. However, the app or the decoding itself may discard line feeds, like uuencode and base 64 but not urlencode. Best way to encode text data for XML in Java? - Stack Overflow
