Hi Paul!
You could easily make such a tool by using the available XML-RPC API.
That would be easy except for the object/class editor I think. -Vincent
Just use these the jars in the org.xwiki.eclipse.xmlrpc package from XEclipse ( http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/xeclipse/trunk/plugins/org.xwiki.eclipse.... ).
For an example of using the XML-RPC API, you could look at the RemoteXWikiDataStorage.java file at http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/xeclipse/trunk/plugins/org.xwiki.eclipse....
Of course, you do have the http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/XMLRPC link which you should check out, but I think that if you are already a bit familiar with XEclipse, you might find that the Java file I specified offers more specific examples of handling content.
Let us know how it turns out. :)

Hello fellow developers,
The usage of a bunch of command-line tools for checking-out the (XML of) xwiki pages and checking them in would be really useful.
The xar approach is not really practical: there's no merge, it's problematic when it gets big, and it still doesn't have a command- line to integrate within a build-flow.
I am convinced it would be easy, for example, to use the XEclipse code to make checkout, update, and checkin ant-tasks or command-line tools.
Did anyone try?
thanks in advance
