Of course, you could fix > gmat (and earn Lenny Muellner's undying admiration). I'd love to use gmat, but so far, I can't even get "gmat gmat.sgm" to produce any output. I'm working through the code, but without some documentation that describes the basic concept behind how gmat is supposed to work, it's hard going. I'd be surprised if gmat is long for this world -- between DSSSL on the SGML side, and (more importantly) XSL on the XML side, custom hacks like this are likely to go away. FWIW, this is what I get when running gmat on gmat.sgm -- the only change to my environment was adding the ORA DTD catalog to the SGML_CATALOG_FILES environment variable. % /usr/local/share/gmat/bin/gmat --verbose gmat.sgm gmat.driver version 0.1 patchlevel 14.
