15        The x\bxp\bpo\bor\brt\bt function's main purpose is to write an XML formatted repre-
16        sentation of the data stored in one or several R\bRR\bRD\bDs. It can also
17        extract numerical reports.
19        If no _\bX_\bP_\bO_\bR_\bT statements are found, there will be no output.
21        -\b-s\bs|-\b--\b-s\bst\bta\bar\brt\bt _\bs_\be_\bc_\bo_\bn_\bd_\bs (default end-1day)
22            The time when the exported range should begin. Time in seconds
23            since epoch (1970-01-01) is required. Negative numbers are relative
24            to the current time. By default one day worth of data will be
25            printed.  See also AT-STYLE TIME SPECIFICATION section in the _\br_\br_\bd_\b-
26            _\bf_\be_\bt_\bc_\bh documentation for a detailed explanation on how to specify
27            time.
29        -\b-e\be|-\b--\b-e\ben\bnd\bd _\bs_\be_\bc_\bo_\bn_\bd_\bs (default now)
30            The time when the exported range should end. Time in seconds since
31            epoch.  See also AT-STYLE TIME SPECIFICATION section in the _\br_\br_\bd_\b-
32            _\bf_\be_\bt_\bc_\bh documentation for a detailed explanation of ways to specify
33            time.
35        -\b-m\bm|-\b--\b-m\bma\bax\bxr\bro\bow\bws\bs _\br_\bo_\bw_\bs (default 400 rows)
36            This works like the -\b-w\bw|-\b--\b-w\bwi\bid\bdt\bth\bh parameter of _\br_\br_\bd_\bg_\br_\ba_\bp_\bh.  In fact it
37            is exactly the same, but the parameter was renamed to describe its
38            purpose in this module. See _\br_\br_\bd_\bg_\br_\ba_\bp_\bh documentation for details.
40        -\b--\b-s\bst\bte\bep\bp _\bv_\ba_\bl_\bu_\be (default automatic)
41            See rrdgraph documentation.
43        -\b--\b-e\ben\bnu\bum\bmd\bds\bs
44            The generated xml should contain the data values in enumerated
45            tags.

55        X\bXP\bPO\bOR\bRT\bT:\b:_\bv_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be:\b::\b:_\bl_\be_\bg_\be_\bn_\bd
56            At least one _\bX_\bP_\bO_\bR_\bT statement should be present. The values refer-
57            enced by _\bv_\bn_\ba_\bm_\be are printed. Optionally add a legend.

60        The output is enclosed in an x\bxp\bpo\bor\brt\bt element and contains two blocks. The
61        first block is enclosed by a m\bme\bet\bta\ba element and contains some meta data.
62        The second block is enclosed by a d\bda\bat\bta\ba element and contains the data
63        rows.
65        Let's assume that the _\bx_\bp_\bo_\br_\bt command looks like this:
67          rrdtool xport \
68                  --start now-1h --end now \
69                  DEF:xx=host-inout.lo.rrd:output:AVERAGE \
70                  DEF:yy=host-inout.lo.rrd:input:AVERAGE \
71                  CDEF:aa=xx,yy,+,8,* \
72                  XPORT:xx:"out bytes" \
73                  XPORT:aa:"in and out bits"
75        The resulting meta data section is (the values will depend on the RRD
76        characteristics):
78          <meta>
79            <start>1020611700</start>
80            <step>300</step>
81            <end>1020615600</end>
82            <rows>14</rows>
83            <columns>2</columns>
84            <legend>
85              <entry>out bytes</entry>
86              <entry>in and out bits</entry>
87            </legend>
88          </meta>
90        The resulting data section is:
