Please let save AlgoWizard it's "strategy_Portfolio.xml" well formatted

in my previous tasks #sq4_5659 and #sq4_5719 I already wrote, among other things too, about XML-errors during the build-process from templates. Now I found out the reason:

Advanced programmers from time to time like to edit XML-files directly in an editor. The AlgoWizard shows the XML-sourcecode in a well formatted manner, so programmers can copy this in their own editors and modify this code at will. After this is done, they have to pack the modified "strategy_Portfolio.xml" into a fresh ZIP-file, rename it into "*.sqx" and ready is a new template (or strategy).

Up to Build 124 this was not a problem: Builder was able to handle such well formatted "strategy_Portfolio.xml" inside of an "*.sqx". But beginning with Build 125 this behavior was changed: Seem's to me, that builder only accepts XML-code as a single line, but not such well formatted XML-code?

And AlgoWizard opens formatted XML-code, but after any modification (via Algo-Wizard) it saves "strategy_Portfolio.xml" as a single Line again.

SQX-staff: It would be fine to reorganize those things in a manner, that all the XML-code will be handled well formatted! And if the software opens an "old" unformatted XML-file (single line) and has to save it again, it will also do this in a formatted manner.

I think, this will make things easier for all those programmers who like to work directly with XML-code. And it will prevent  such errors, like described in the tasks #sq4_5659 and #sq4_5719 forever ... .
