Hello my virtual friends,

is there any software solution that solves the following issue?
I would like to auto build a text file, that includes all my game titles, which I do have currently listed in the gamelist.xml files of my retropie station.
From the algo it should be a pretty simple job.
--> Open existing gamelist files and search for the string "<name>" and put all information into eg .csv file until the following "</name>" string.
Repeat this until the file is parsed. I could code this by myself, but it would take me much to much time until first results.
(The last real program I wrote was like in 2005. So I just hope there is an existing way.)

Any ideas? Thanks a lot
