Re: [xsl] creating canonRef from flat

[David Carlisle <davidc@xxxxxxxxx>]

Oh sorry I didn't notice that you were changing the format of the book

version again with the lookup table for changing names stolen from
Mike's.

Both of our solutions assumed that the long book names don't include
spaces, as we're splitting on spaces to look for the chapter numbers.
If that isn't the case the regexp will need tweaking a bit.

The hardest part of getting this working was spelling regexp without a p
and analyse without an s...
