[xsl] non-binary, non-XML, source files

[Bernd Gauweiler <bernd@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Apologies first: I realize this seems a silly question, but then, it
might only appear silly owing to my ignorance?

At present, I render XML to HTML (via XSLT). I use a custom tool to
create the XML input from proprietary databases. Works fine.

The next project is likely to process ANSI-C source code and other ASCII
files that are not in XML form. Will I still have to create a tool that
creates XML first, or is there a way for XSLT to work directly on
non-binary, non-XML, source files?

TIA
Bernd
