Is there a way to create XML files that does not involve concatenating strings?

$ touch file.xml # :S ???

Open a file with an .xml extension and it
should put you in nXML mode which is the/a
major mode for editing XML.

Thank you Emanuel.

Fair enough :-)

What I meant is I'm looking for a way to feed tags/properties/contents to a file in a way that does not involve concatenation. I use nxml to validate XML often enough, but besides for that I have no clear idea how to handle that.

Thank you for asking this question, because I would like to know. I am 
going to look into:

xml-mode that comes with emacs has a print function that takes "nodes" 
and serializes them as XML text. There are variables that describe what 
a node is.

esxml intends to be sxml (http://okmij.org/ftp/Scheme/SXML.html) for elisp.
