i am using lot of Notepad++ and Textpad to copy paste the unstructured XMLs. I wonder if there is a way i select all text and select like XML Tools and choose 'format xml' etc as given in below link

I tried to add those DLL files and all and it did not work. Please advise
So basically you need a tool to pretty print (indent, linebreak etc) XML parts of an otherwise ordinary text file?
And this tool must come in the form of a notepad++ plugin?
