This XML schema defines the structure of all file formats used by AceText 2.0 (and later). You can use this schema to read and write AceText Collection files (*.atc), and to copy and paste AceText clips and collections to and from the clipboard. See http://www.acetext.com/xml.html for more information.
The text held by the clip. Only used if kind in (text, rectangular)
The "before" text. Only used if kind = beforeafter
The "after" text. Only used if kind = beforeafter
The binary data held by the clip. Only used if kind = binary
URL associated with the clip. Can be used with any kind of clip.
Globally unique ID used by RSS and Atom feeds to identify feed entries. AceText uses this ID internally for clips that are part of a feed reader or writer.
Indicates the type of contents held by the clip.
Clip's label in the clip tree. Clips without a label use the first line of the clip's contents as the label.
AceType abbreviation to select this clip via AceType.
Date the clip was last modified, or the date the clip represents in a journal.
Indicates if the clip should be indented when it's pasted.
Date the clip was deleted.
Sort clips in the same way as they're sorted in the folder's parent folder.
Do not sort clips.
Sort clips alphabetically from A to Z by their labels.
Sort clips alphabetically from Z to A by their labels.
Sort clips alphabetically from A to Z by their AceType abbreviations.
Sort clips alphabetically from Z to A by their AceType abbreviations.
Sort clips by date from newest to oldest.
Sort clips by date from oldest to newest.
A folder can contain any number of intermixed clips and folders.
AceText's recycle bin collection file contains recycledclip instead of clip elements. All other collections should contain only clip elements.
Folder's label in the clip tree.
Sort order for clips in this folder. The parent folder's sort order is used if the sort attribute is missing.
Since the FeedReader type is an extension of the Folder type, it can technically contain subfolders and even sub-feed-readers. However, it is recommended not to put anything into feed readers other than the clips retrieved from the feed, even if AceText allows the user to do otherwise.
feed: or http: URL pointing to the RSS or Atom feed.
Indicates if AceText should automatically reload the feed (either daily, or at the frequency specified by the feed itself).
Indicates if AceText should delete all the clips from the feed reader folder when adding the clips from the current feed.
Date and time the feed was published (or the date it was retrieved if the feed doesn't specify its publication date).
Date and time on or after which the feed should be automatically refreshed, according to the feed itself.
User-specified time to live in minutes for the feed. Only used if the feed itself doesn't specify.
Since the FeedWriter type is an extension of the Folder type, it can technically contain subfolders and even sub-feed-readers. However, it is recommended not to put anything into feed writers other than the clips that should be written into the feed. Clips in subfolders will NOT be written into the feed.
Description or summary of the feed
feed: or http: URL pointing to the location where the RSS feed will be published.
Copyright statement to be put into the feed.
Indicates if AceText should save the feed into a file.
File to save the feed into.
Indicates if AceText should upload the feed via FTP.

FTP password. AceText will prompt for the password if none is specified.
Full path to the file on the FTP server to be uploaded.
Date and time the feed was last written.
AceText Collection file (*.atc) and "AceText Collection" clipboard format.
History list for previously used parameter substitutions. Some of the remembered parameters may not actually occur in the collection, if the clips previously containing these parameters were edited or deleted.
Up to 10 previously used values for the parameter, from most recently used to least recently used. For date, time and date+time parameters, the history items use xsd:date, xsd:time and xsd:dateTime values respectively. For file name and content parameters, the history items must be file paths.
The parameter's name, including % signs.
AceText Collection file (*.atc) and "AceText Collection" clipboard format.
Password-protected AceText Collection file (*.atc). The contents of the tag must be a CDATA section containing exactly as many bytes as indicated by the attribute. There should be no extraneous whitespace.
"AceText Clip" clipboard format.
AceText XML Schema version. When encountering a greater version number, tell the user to upgrade. The version number is only incremented when the schema changes, rather than with each release of AceText.
