calling external functions

[Holger Klawitter <holger@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there,

is there any way to call external functions from withing DSSSL, most
perferably perl scripts or similar.

I repeatedly run over problems where I have to insert some information
into a SGML document which cannot be computed (at reasonable cost) from
within Jade. Lots of things like the URL of the "next" document, things
might be passed into variables, but sometime the result has to be computed
from context data which is only accessible to jade. Transforming text only
inside specific elements is such an example.

I would like to do that without having to mess with the jade source
code.

Any ideas?
