Hi Christian, I have downloaded the latest snapshot and confirm that it works exactly as I had imagined. Many thanks for your quick attention to my query! I have an odd issue that a few files - out of hundreds of thousands - that are imported from the tarred archives consistently cause an XML syntax error to be thrown, requiring me to use the 'skip corrupt files' option. I can't get to the bottom of this, as the files themselves are valid once I inspect them. Tarring them individually leads to no error on import. Importing them after extraction also causes no error. If you are interested, I can make an example available to you.

Hi Constantine, The latest BaseX snapshot now supports the import of (uncompressed) tar files [1].

Hello all,
Is there a known workaround for creating a db from tarred XML using the Database -> New menu? I can always untar the tarfile first, but it would be sort-of nice just to point at the tarfile and load.
TIA, Constantine ________________________________
