Re: Open Source SGML vs XML.


Hi,

    PSGML mode for Emacs? You can take a look at the great documentation
from ArsDigita on how to use/install it:
http://developer.arsdigita.com/doc/psgml-mode.html

    But if by process you mean applying XSL stylesheets, maybe you can use
Saxon: unfortunatly it's Java but it does quite a good job, more info @

    Hope this helps.

Cheers

/B
