Re: Output format improvment for ifconfig(8)

[Malcolm Herbert <mjch%mjch.net@localhost>]

... whilst we're[1] fiddling with this format, why not go the whole hog
and make something really machine-readable with an XML format output?

That would seem to satisfy the need to read the output of ifconfig
programmatically and allow the human readable format to be truly free
form.

[1] I say 'we' although obviously I've not made any contribution to date
apart from suggest more work ... :)
