Is there a way to make xml events easier to read

Hi,

I'm getting an xml feed which is ugly. Very busy, lots of info...

Are there any options to apply that will make it easier to read - nice and pretty, like if xml tidy had been applied (see below)

<version>0003</version>

<ds>
    <name>memory_total_kib</name>
    <type>GAUGE</type>
    <minimal_heartbeat>300.0000</minimal_heartbeat>
    <min>0.0</min>
    <max>Infinity</max>

Thanks. Tried it - doesn't seem to work with Splunk 6 - bunch of errors. Great idea for an app though, especially since more and more data seems to be xml based. I'll keep plugging.
