                "XML Extensions For mIRC 1.0" (XMLEX for short) provides a complete set of aliases to
                create,fetch,load,manipulate,navigate & transform XML documents
              }

            }
            # $xml.document([file|url]<,callBackAlias>)
            - purpose: returns a reference to a new xml document.
            - arguments:
            --- file|url: optional, when specified loads the xml at the specified location. (can be http)
            --- callBackAlias: optional, when specified mIRC will not wait for the document to load but instead 
            call the specified alias when its done. This will also be called if the document failed to load!

            # $xml.parseError(<documentReference>)[.property|print]
            - purpose: check if there where errors after doing an operation
            - returns: $true or $false.
            - arguments: documentReference, required. Pointer to an xml document as returned by $xml.document();
            - property: see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms767720(VS.85).aspx
            ---- or print to get a pretty print back of all the properties 
            # $xml.save(<documentReference>,<location>)
            - purpose: save an xml document to a location
            - returns: $true or $false indicating success
            - arguments: 
            --- documentReference, required. Pointer to an xml document as returned by $xml.document();
            --- location, required. File location where to save it too. overwrites and creates by default;

            # $xml.selectNode(<reference>,<xpath>)
            - purpose: selects a node reference based on the xpath using the reference from $1 as reference.
            - returns: node reference.
            - arguments: 
            --- reference: a valid $xml reference, required.
            --- xpath: xpath query selecting the xml node;

            # $xml.selectNodeSet(<reference>,<xpath>)
            - purpose: selects a nodeset reference based on the xpath using the reference from $1 as reference.
            - returns: nodeset reference.
            - arguments: 
            --- reference: a valid $xml reference, required.
            --- xpath: xpath query selecting the xml nodeset;


            # $xml.nodeSet(<reference)<.property>
            - purpose: selects a nodeset and calls property on that nodeset while destroying the nodeset straight
            afterwards. useful for small operations.
            - returns: nothing.
            - arguments: 
            --- reference: a valid $xml reference, required.
            --- xpath: xpath query selecting the xml nodeset;
            - property: required. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms767664(VS.85).aspx



            # $xml.node(<reference>[,xpath])<.property>
            - purpose: selects a node and calls property on that node while destroying the nodeset straight
            afterwards. useful for small operations.
            - returns: nothing.
            - arguments: 
            --- reference: a valid $xml reference, required.
            --- xpath: xpath query selecting the xml nodeset;
            - property: required. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms761386(VS.85).aspx
            - NOTE: not all properties will work by design. Im interested in hearing which don't
            but please note some can never work due to $com.

            # $xml.destroy(<reference>)
            - purpose: destroys the reference from mIRC's memory and with it all of its open descendants.
            everytime you $xml.document or use selectNodeSet or SelectNode or createElement or setAttributes
            com objects are left open by design (references) allowing you to reuse nodes. These have to be closed.
            See the example aliases, calling destroy on the document reference is enough to close all references 
            asociated with that document.

            # $xml.setAttributes(<elementReference>,<attribute1Name,attribute1Value>[,..])
            - purpose: set or overwrite attribute values on an element.
            - returns: nothing
            -- arguments
            --- elementReference, required. pointer to a reference of node type element
            --- name, value, optional. key value pairs of the attribute can be 1 or many.

            # $xml.createElement(<reference>,<elementName>[,attribute1Name,attribute1Value,..])
            -- purpose: create an element in the document using <reference> as parent.
            -- returns: nothing.
            -- arguments: 
            --- reference, required. document or element reference that acts as parent of the to be created element.
            --- elementName, required. name of the element XML guidelines apply.
            --- ,attribute1Name,attribute1Value,.., optional. Key value pairs of the attributes on the element.

            # $xml.removeElement(<reference>)
            -- purpose: removes an element from the xml document.
            -- returns: nothing.
            -- arguments: 
            --- reference, required. document or element reference that should be removed.

            # $xml.reference (<reference>)
            -- purpose: check if $1 is a valid xml reference.
            -- returns: $true or $false.
            -- arguments: 
            --- reference, required. document or element reference to check.

            # $xml.instanceOf(<reference>)
            -- purpose: returns the type of the reference.
            -- returns: document, node, nodeSet, element or elementpointer.
            -- arguments: 
            --- reference, required. document or element reference to check.
