Method: LOLspeak::Tranzlator#translate_xml_element!

Defined in:
lib/lolspeak.rb

#translate_xml_element!(xml_element, &filter) ⇒ Object

Translates the REXML::Text parts of a single REXML::Element. The element is modified in place.

If a block is given, it is called to transform each individual word. By default, each word is XML escaped, so this transform applies on top of that.

:call-seq:

translate_xml_element!(xml_element)
translate_xml_element!(xml_element) { |word| transform }
