Speaking of learning psgml ;-), I could suggest writing a simple DocBook
document within psgml-mode only containing the desired doctype
declaration. Force psgml to parse the DTD with C-c C-p if not done
already. Then select menuitem DTD -> Info -> "List elements"
(alternatively activate the same function by "M-x sgml-list-elements"), et
voilà.  Well, might not be the format you intended to get but using emacs'
rectangle commands or maybe even piping appropriate cut and sort commands
in a shell lead you there. And the best: It uses SGML/XML DTD directly so
you should be on the safe side with respect to the official version.

Bye,
Steffen.
