Description 

Author

Ricky Scotti

This package can retrieve text translations from XML files.

It can parse a given XML file and extract translations of text for one or more languages.

The class can return the translations of individual text strings for a specific supported language or for the default language.

It can also replace some marks in the text with some formatting HTML tags like bold, italic, underscore and line break.
