Text to non-trivial xml. (pwsafe --> KeePassX)

I'd like to take the output of `pwsafe --exportdb > database.txt` and convert it to a KeePassX XML friendly format (feature request in pwsafe).

I found flat file converter but the syntax is beyond me with this example. Solutions are welcomed.

More details
Here is the pwsafe --> KeePassX XML translations. The pwsafe export is simply a txt file with 6 fields (the first field can be ignored):

Code: Select all

uuid= doesn't translate
group= group>title
name= entry>title
login= entry>username
passwd= entry>password
notes= entry>comment
Example txt file for conversion (exported from pwsafe):

Code: Select all

# passwordsafe version 2.0 database"
uuid	group	name	login	passwd	notes
"123d9-daf-df-3423423"	"retail"	"amazon"	"myamazonuser"	"sjfJ849"	"superfluous comment"
"4599d934-dsfs-324"	"retail"	"netflix"	"netflixuser"	"dj3W$#"	""
"4kdfkd-434-jj"	"email"	"gmail"	"mygmail"	"dfkpass"	""
Example xml in keepassx xml:

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE KEEPASSX_DATABASE>
<database>
 <group>
  <title>Internet</title>
  <entry>
   <title>github</title>
   <username>githubusername</username>
   <password>githubpassword</password>
   <comment>optional comment</comment>
  </entry>
 </group>
 <group>
  <title>retail</title>
  <entry>
   <title>amazon</title>
   <username>username</username>
   <password>myamazonpw</password>
  </entry>
 </group>
 <group>
  <title>retail</title>
  <entry>
   <title>netflix</title>
   <username>username</username>
   <password>mynfxpw</password>
  </entry>
 </group>
</database>
