/ "joseph, Gershon" <Gershon_joseph@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> was heard to say:
| Note that I am using a DocBook extension, and did not modify the stylesheets
| to cater for them yet. I expected to get red text in the appropriate places.
| My extensions are fairly straight-forward. I added markup for MIB object

I didn't know the Men In Black were using DocBook. That's cool. I think.
My expectations about what would happen with unexpected elements are the
same as yours, I can't imagine what's wrong.

| If anyone has an Omnimark or Perl program that replaces text with rubbish

This does a fair job:

$file = shift @ARGV || die;
open (F, $file);
read (F, $_, -s $file);
close (F);

while (/>(.*?)</s) {
    my $text = $1;
    print $` . ">";
    $_ = $';
    $text =~ s/[^ \n]/x/sg;
    print $text . "<";
}
print $_;

                                        Cheers,
                                          norm
