Hi I'm looking for some advice. I'm writing a Gnome application
to 
handle wireless profiles. Anyway I need to keep track of the
profiles,
data in the profile for example would include

ESSID, WEP KEY, Network Device amongst some others

Anyway I assume XML is probably the cleanest way to write a
config
file. Never having done this before or used XML does anyone have
any
recommendation / pointers to get me started. The application is
written
in C so are there any libraries / functions I can make use of ?

Any help , advise and pointers or just personal experience would
be
appreciated.

Thanks Jon
