Hi, Having recognized the superiority of xproc ;) and wanting to wean myself off ant and friends, I have this first project in mind to apply my newly acquired knowledge: To check that modifications to our XSLT stylesheets have no side effects, I want to be able to run the modified stylesheets against a control set of input XML files and compare the outputs with previously generated reference outputs. Is this a valid use case for xproc? One other question is this: The stylesheet doesn't generate one output file but many via result-document (similar to the DocBook chunking mechanism). Will they be available directly via the xslt output port, or do I have to do a directory-list step? One final question: Although there is a compare step it seems to return only a Boolean. Are there steps that allow for more detailed results? Should I use exec with a traditional diff engine? thanks, Jakob.
