Comparison of XProc file steps and EXPath file functions

Hi folks,

In the course of the QT4CG work, I took an action to compare the functionality of the EXPath file functions (being added to XPath 4.0) and the XProc file steps.

See: https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-xslt-40/2025Oct/0011.html

The only thing that stands out to me is that the p:os-info step could return the temporary directory and the line separator as standard properties.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
