CXML decompiler

Experimental tool coded by flatz for documenting purposes, three versions of the tool was released publically in a IRC channel the same day (first and second versions had bugs that was identifyed and fixed)

The tool can extract the files contained inside a CXML container (CXML, QRCF, P3TF, RAFO, etc...), and generates an .xml that represents the original CXML structure

• Usage:
  • Note the original files lines.qrc and coldboot.raf are compressed with zlib (a compression layer that affects the whole file and makes imposible to read the cxml structure), the command line examples below considers the files was decompressed in a previous step (using a zlib archiver), in this previous step his file-extensions was renamed to "qrcf" and "rafo" (are the decompressed versions where the cxml structure is fully readable and the tool can process it)

has been removed from the zlib compression layer that originally is applyed over the whole file... this is why his file-extensions in the command line examples are renamed to "qrcf" and "rafo"

Changelog
---------
v1 alpha - Basic .cxml support
v2 alpha - Fixed a bug related with RAFO header (coldboot.raf support added)
v3 alpha - Fixed offset/length displacements in the function that locates float values (xml tag attributes related with x,y,z axis in 3D space now looks correct)
