A while ago we discussed the importance of good DSSSL
applications in spreading its use.

According to the standard, the main use of DSSSL
seems to be for applications of this type:
   Generate different presentation formats like
   RTF/TeX/HTML/MIF from one SGML source
   (including processing/filtering of the content).

However, SGML can also be used to represent computer programs.
Then, DSSSL could be used for program analysis & source-to-source
transformations.  I think Paul mentioned program specifications
earlier today.  Is anyone else thinking of using DSSSL for this
type of work?

Are there other such uses for which DSSSL may be useful?
How are you using (or intend to use) DSSSL?
