"Non-XML syntax" is a pretty broad target. If a program is going to read
non-XML input and then use XML markup to identify its structure in the
output, it has to have some way of identifying the structure of the
input. This means being specialized to read specific kinds of input. For
example, Rick Geimer's RTF2XML (http://www.sesha.com/omlette/rtf2xml/)
reads RTF and outputs XML. What kind of input do you have?
