XML Résumé Library: Skills Formatting

The skills.format parameter controls the formatting of skillsets. Possible values are bullet (the default) and comma.

The bullet format is more useful when individual skill entries are each a complete sentence or sentence fragment. The comma format may be preferable when each skill is a single word or short phrase.

Given a skillset section like this:

      <skillarea>
        <title>Technical Skills</title>
        <skillset>
          <title>Programming Languages</title>
	  <skills>
	    <skill>Java</skill>
	    <skill>C++</skill>
	    <skill>C</skill>
	    <skill>perl</skill>
	  </skills>
        </skillset>
      </skillarea>
      

This is how it would look in each of the formats:

Bullet

Technical Skills

Programming Languages

Comma

Technical Skills

Programming Languages: Java, C++, C, perl
