In Processing 1.5.1, a primitive method that can work with your kind of XML would be to use loadStrings() to load the file, copy the lines to a bigger array, insert the new line(s) at the right place and use saveStrings() to save it.
In 2.0+, the XML library allows to modify and to save back the XML data.
