1The script xmlproc.sh takes an xml file as input,
2and processes it to create .pdf, .html or .ps output.
3It uses format.pl, a perl script to format <pre> blocks nicely,

25Notum bene:
26- pdfxmltex barfs if given a filename with an underscore in it
27
28- xmltex won't work yet - there's a bug in passivetex

31 using pdfxmltex.
