LegendsViewer straight up just doesn't work.

Loading the xml file in gives a popup saying "There was an error loading this XML file! Do you wish to attempt a repair?"

Selecting yes gives a Microsoft .NET Framework Exception

If you select continue the program does nothing and never loads the legends file.

Thanks, I contacted the poster of the issue. I presume, this could be the cause of the problem. If that is the case, I cannot fix it and Toady has to format user inputs in a way that they do not corrupt the xml file.

It was this DFHack script error, that should be fixed in their next version.
