xml or other complete text representation of a control?

[Phil Davis]

Isn't that pretty much what the SC-to-Rev converter does with SC projects?

One part of the process might look something like:

on convertControlToText
  put the properties of control x into tProps
  combine tProps with cr and "="
  put tProps into url "file:control-x-props"
end convertControlToText


on convertTextToControl
  put url "file:control-x-props" into tProps
  split tProps with cr and "="
  set the properties of the templateControl to tProps
  create control
end convertTextToControl


The above is pseudocode - it won't work as is, and a lot is left out, but it
conveys the idea.
