It copies whatever you type (until you type "EOF" on a line by itself) into
"mydvd.xml". It's known as a "here-document". If you type the command as
"<<-" not "<<", it'll ignore leading white space (through the entire thing?
only when recognizing the terminator?).

"cat mydvd.xml" to make sure what's in there is what should be in there.
If you're really paranoid, "cat -er mydvd.xml".
