Help Repairing MSN History Files? (XML)

[MegaScientifical]

The other day, I hit some lag spikes and this apparently caused random .xml files to be chopped or partially saved. This corrupted them and prevents me from saving anymore message history. I know I can move these elsewhere and it will create new files, but I'd also like the old history repaired for reference. As it stands, I can't tell which files are broken unless I open every persons file. Is there anyway this could be done automatically, where as each file is checked for unexpected ends and repaired so they end normally and can be used again?

I would expect someone would have to make some code to do this...

All I need is some program that can automatically correct syntax errors by simply ending expressions so functionality is restored.

I don't think it's possible. :o

I'm sure it's possible, it's just difficult. My mind isn't able to comprehend the process, but I'm sure you could make some script that looks for the syntax errors, determine what the problem is, and do some quick patch just to make it work.

I believe the file is abruptly stopping before the > mark on an expression and then not finishing the rest of them. I was hoping, if you give some fixer a specific format to follow, it will look for the lack of format and therefore do the quick patch to make the file usable again. I could do this myself, but I must mention again that it appears to have effected many random files, and my history is expansive. That's why I wish for some automation.

OH! Wait a second, my bad, I misread your request, I thought you were looking for an .xml patcher to fix your corrupt files. Basically to repair a corrupt file.

I'm sure your actual request would be possible.
