As an example (of using a tank to kill a mosquito) http://pastebin.ca/2147582 is
what I wrote. Save it as xml2src. Replace . ~mythtv/.mythtv/mysql.txt with:

   for V in $(xml2src); do export $V; done

Truth be told, I'm finding that I don't use most of my old SQL scripts and
using python bindings and Services API are of more interest.

But, this gives me time to learn then convert anything I actually use.

Cue the part where someone who knows what they're doing writes the
whole thing in one line.
