PADS can describe pretty much any ascii or binary data file.  Given a
PADS description, it's possible to interpret data matching the
description as if it were xml.  The PADX tool (implemented by
primarily by Mary Fernandez, Kathleen Fisher and Yitzhak Mandelbaum)
makes it possible to write Xquery programs and evaluate them against
the data.  PADX uses Galax, the xquery query engine implemented by
Mary and Jerome Simeon.

Thanks, this might be very useful in the future.
