Re: XML/XSL unixish transform?

[Rick Geimer <rick.geimer@xxxxxxx>]

You could try doing this with XT, but you may want to look at something
besides XSL for this. OmniMark might be a good choice, since it is fast,
available on most Unix platforms, and free. It does not use XSL though.
It has it's own rules based language that operates on elements.
