XMLStarlet Command Line XML/XSLT Toolkit 1.0.1 has been released
http://xmlstar.sourceforge.net/
XMLStarlet is a set of command line utilities (tools) to transform, =
query, validate, and edit XML documents and files using simple set of =
shell commands in similar way it is done for plain text files using UNIX =
grep, sed, awk, diff, patch, join, etc commands.
This set of command line utilities can be used by those who deal with =
many XML documents on UNIX shell command prompt as well as for automated =
XML processing with shell scripts.
The toolkit's feature set includes options to:=20
Check or validate XML files (simple well-formedness check, DTD, XSD, =
RelaxNG)=20
Calculate values of XPath expressions on XML files (such as running =
sums, etc)
Search XML files for matches to given XPath expressions
Apply XSLT stylesheets to XML documents (including EXSLT support, and =
passing parameters to stylesheets)
Query XML documents (ex. query for value of some elements of attributes, =
sorting, etc)
Modify or edit XML documents (ex. delete some elements)
Format or "beautify" XML documents (as changing indentation, etc)
Fetch XML documents using http:// or ftp:// URLs
Browse tree structure of XML documents (in similar way to 'ls' command =
for directories)
Include one XML document into another using XInclude
XML c14n canonicalization
Escape/unescape special XML characters in input text
Display directories in XML format
Convert XML into PYX format (based on ESIS - ISO 8879) and vice versa
XMLStarlet command line utility is written in C and uses libxml2 and =
libxslt from http://xmlsoft.org/. Implementation of extensive choice of =
options for XMLStarlet utility was only possible because of rich feature =
set of libxml2 and libxslt (many thanks to the developers of those =
libraries for great work).=20
XMLStarlet is linked statically to both libxml2 and libxslt, so =
generally all you need to process XML documents is one executable file. =
To run XmlStarlet utility you can simple type 'xml' on command line and =
see list of options available.=20
XMLStarlet is open source freeware under MIT license which allows free =
use and distribution for both commercial and non-commercial projects.=20
