getTodos: Access elements in a To-Do file

In omegahat/XDocTools: Tools for working with XML and XSL documents

Description

This is the start of working with To-Do files from within R. These To-Do files are created as XML by the author and rendered on-the-fly in a Web browser using the associated style sheet. Because of the reordering (based on status), accessing the elements by index/position doesn't make a lot of sense. This function allows one to fetch all the nodes.

Usage

getTodos(doc, path = "//fixme|//todo|//Note|//question", nodes = TRUE)

Arguments

doc	the XML document to be processed. This can be either the file name (or URL) or the already parsed XML document returned from xmlParse .
path
nodes	a logical value indicating whether one wants the nodes to be returned or the value of the links or identifiers as strings.
