You won’t be able to tell, and you certainly won’t care, but I have converted all the files that hold the image and client data (and these blog entries) from plain text to XML.

On a purely technical note, it is far simpler to let the XML parser do all the work encoding and decoding any HTML I want to add. From a functional point of view, it allows me much greater flexibility to reconfigure or update the information in the files. Plus it’s a lot easier to edit XML by hand if I need to.
