Question Modify a text or xml file

Hi all,

I want to write a shell which would allow me to edit a text file or a xml file.

Basically i want to add a new node in a existing xml file. The values for this new node are based on user input.

Thanks in advance

NAME
pom_xpath_set - set text contents of XML node from POM file SYNOPSIS
%pom_xpath_set XPath new-contents [POM-location] DESCRIPTION
This macro patches specified POM file replacing text contents of all XML nodes described by the XPath expression with given new text content. XPath is an expression describing a set of XML nodes to be removed from the POM file. It must be a properly formated XPath 1.0 expression, as described in http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath/. POM location can be either a full path to the POM file, or a path to the directory containing pom.xml. If POM location is not given then pom.xml from current working directory is used. BUGS
POM files use a specific namespace - http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0. Currently this namespace needs to be explicitly specified in all XPath POM macros by prefixing all node names with pom:. AUTHOR
