IINNTTRROODDUUCCTTIIOONN
        xsltproc is a command line tool for applying XSLT stylesheets  to  XML
       documents.  It  is part of libxslt, the XSLT C library for GNOME. While
       it was developed as part of the GNOME project, it can operate  indepen-
       dently of the GNOME desktop.


        xsltproc  is  invoked  from  the  command  line  with  the name of the
       stylesheet to be used followed by the name of  the  file  or  files  to
       which the stylesheet is to be applied.


       If  a  stylesheet is included in an XML document with a Stylesheet Pro-
       cessing Instruction, no stylesheet need be named at the  command  line.
       xsltproc  will automatically detect the included stylesheet and use it.


       By default, output is to stdout. You can specify a file for output  us-
       ing the -oo option.


CCOOMMMMAANNDD LLIINNEE OOPPTTIIOONNSS
       -VV or --vveerrssiioonn
              Show the version of libxml and libxslt used.


       -vv or --vveerrbboossee
              Output  each step taken by xsltproc in processing the stylesheet
              and the document.


       -oo or --oouuttppuutt file
              Direct output to the file named file. For multiple outputs, also
              known as "chunking", -oo ddiirreeccttoorryy// directs the output files to a
              specified directory. The directory must already exist.


       --ttiimmiinngg
              Display the time used for parsing the  stylesheet,  parsing  the
              document and applying the stylesheet and saving the result. Dis-
              played in milliseconds.


       --rreeppeeaatt
              Run the transformation 20 times. Used for timing tests.


       --ddeebbuugg
              Output an XML tree of the  transformed  document  for  debugging
              purposes.


       --nnoovvaalliidd
              Skip loading the document's DTD.


       --nnoooouutt
              Do not output the result.


       --mmaaxxddeepptthh value
              Adjust  the  maximum  depth of the template stack before libxslt
              concludes it is in an infinite loop. The default is 500.


       --hhttmmll The input document is an HTML file.


       --ppaarraamm name value
              Pass a parameter of name name and value value to the stylesheet.
              You may pass multiple name/value pairs up to a maximum of 32. If
              the value being passed is a string rather than a node  identifi-
              er, use --ssttrriinnggppaarraamm instead.


       --ssttrriinnggppaarraamm name value
              Pass  a paramenter of name name and value value where value is a
              string rather than a node identifier. (Note: The string must  be
              utf-8.)


       --nnoonneett
              Do not use the Internet to fetch DTD's, entities or documents.


       --ppaatthh paths
              Use  the list (separated by space or column) of filesystem paths
              specified by paths to load DTDs, entities or documents.


       --llooaadd-ttrraaccee
              Display to stderr all the documents loaded during  the  process-
              ing.


       --ccaattaallooggss
              s  te GL aao seiid n SGMLCATALOGFILES o eov
              the location of external entities. By  default,  xsltproc  looks
              o  te  aao seiid n XMLCATALOGFILES I ta i nt              specified, it uses /etc/xml/catalog.


       --xxiinncclluuddee
              Process the input document  using  the  Xinclude  specification.
              More details on this can be found in the Xinclude specification:
              http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude/: http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude/


       --pprrooffiillee or --nnoorrmmaann
              Output profiling information detailing the amount of time  spent
              in  each  part  of  the stylesheet. This is useful in optimizing
              stylesheet performance.


       --dduummppeexxtteennssiioonnss
              Dumps the list of all registered extensions on stdout.


       --nnoowwrriittee
              Refuses to write to any file or resource.


       --nnoommkkddiirr
              Refuses to create directories.
