xmlprofile 1 Sep 18 2002 xmlprofile conditionalization (profiling) for XML documents xmlprofile attribute value file DESCRIPTION This tool supports conditionally including or excluding sections from XML documents, implementing a facility similar to SGML marked sections. To use it, specify an attribute name, a value, and a list of files. Each file will be processed in turn and the results sent to standard output. For each tag pair that has a binding of the attribute in its header tag, that tag pair and enclosed contents will be present in the output if and only if the attribute value in the tag matches the required value passed in on the xmlprofile command line. A required value matches an attribute value if either (a) they are equal strings, or (b) the attribute value contains or-bars and the required value matches one of the or-bar-separated substrings. AUTHORS The generated-stylesheet technique for profiling was invented by Jirka Kosek. This implementation is by by Eric S. Raymond esr@snark.thyrsus.com. SEE ALSO
