Parsing XML using command line

Hi Experts,

How do I parse a XML with below contents

Code:
      <saw:user name="mbussey@xyz.com" />
      <saw:user name="kimmy.chan@pqr.com" />
      <saw:user name="chudgins@gmail.com" />

and retrieve below output ?

Code:
	  [email]mbussey@xyz.com[/email]
	  [email]kimmy.chan@pqr.com[/email]
	  [email]chudgins@gmail.com[/email]

Also I have 5 .xml file with different set of parsing name value. Anyway we can parse and merge them in command line and output in one file ?

thanks and appreciate your help ?

XML::LibXML::NodeList::Iterator(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation		      XML::LibXML::NodeList::Iterator(3pm)

NAME
XML::LibXML::NodeList::Iterator - Iteration Class for XML::LibXML XPath results SYNOPSIS
use XML::LibXML; use XML::LibXML::NodeList::Iterator; my $doc = XML::LibXML->new->parse_string( $somedata ); my $nodelist = $doc->findnodes( $somexpathquery ); my $iter= XML::LibXML::NodeList::Iterator->new( $nodelist ); # more control on the flow while ( $iter->nextNode ) { # do something } # operate on the entire tree $iter->iterate( &operate ); DESCRIPTION
XML::LibXML::NodeList::Iterator is very similar to XML::LibXML::Iterator, but it does not iterate on the tree structure but on a XML::LibXML::NodeList object. Because XML::LibXML::NodeList is basicly an array the functionality of XML::LibXML::NodeList::Iterator is more restircted to stepwise foreward and backward than XML::LibXML::Iterator is. SEE ALSO
