XSLT and XPath are great languages for manipulating and transforming data--provided the data is formatted as XML.

For non-XML data, AWK is a great language.
XSLT can also be good for many of the things awk is good for, now that
it can read text files.

And let's not forget about Invisible XML that nowadays allows you to
parse most text formats with your XSLT or XQuery processor once you
declare a grammar for the text format.
