Description-Content-Type: text/plain

Usage is fairly straightforward:

	import speedyxml
	xml = speedyxml.parse('<xml><test this="now" /></xml>')

Will result in:

	(
		u'xml', 
		None, 
		[
			(
				u'test', 
				{u'this': u'now'}, 
				None
			)
		]
	)

So basically its:

	(nodeName, attributes, children)

Plus some options (second argument to parse)

	FLAG_EXPANDEMPTY

		If you want empty attributes and children to be {} and [] instead of None, use this

	FLAG_RETURNCOMMENTS

		Return comments as:

		(TAG_COMMENT, None, u' comment ')

	FLAG_RETURNPI

		Returns processing instructions as:

		(TAG_PI, {u'name': u'php'}, u'phpinfo();')

	FLAG_IGNOREENTITIES
		
		does not resolve entities when set

And one exception:

	XMLParseException
