Simple Outline XML (SOX) is a compressed way of writing XML.
SOX uses indenting to represent the structure of an XML document, eliminating the need for closing tags.
The following XHTML markup fragment:
<htmlxmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><title>Sample page</title></head><body><p>A very brief page</p></body></html>... would appear in SOX as:
html> xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml head> title> Sample page body> p> A very brief page
SOX can be readily converted to XML.
