I forgot to mention. Of course fill in the foo=$bar part with the names 
of your variables. One thing you can do is use perl, sed, awk, or egrep 
to grab every single variable name from your XMLs, and add them all to 
your messages in some convenient order (I often go with alphabetical 
order myself).
