Something that is not clear to me from the man page is whether or not it is possible to have more than one --dsl option, and if so, what is the precedence for applying them? I would like to write a small file containing the definitions that I need to override, and have that merged with the default file. If that is not supported, what would be a "best practice" approach to redefining a small number of style sheet variables?
