## The Dump Formatter

The Dump formatter's main goal is to provide a format that is as close to the ASG tree, is easily browsable to the naked eye, and provides the means to do validation or other analysis.

It generates an xml tree that can be browsed via mozilla (it uses a stylesheet for convenient display), or it can be analyzed with some special tools using xpath expressions.

It is used right now for all unit tests.
