Are there any integration frameworks like smooks for .NET?

I'm doing a lot of work coding merging and data transformation in C#, and I'm just wondering if there are any good "helpers" for doing that instead of handcoding it all. (that is, without going for a full integration platform like Biztalk) I'm talking merging and开发者_如何学C mapping textfiles to produce XML, quite big files but only some very month.

In java, there are a bunch of small ESB's and other things like Smooks that would help, but are there anything like that for C# or is it easier to just go for LINQ?

Regards
