3 * synopsis: Navigates a tree to print element names
4 * purpose: Parse a file to a tree, use xmlDocGetRootElement() to
5 * get the root element, then walk the document and print
6 * all the element name in document order.
7 * usage: tree1 filename_or_URL
8 * test: tree1 test2.xml > tree1.tmp ; diff tree1.tmp tree1.res ; rm tree1.tmp
