The XML tools are hard enough to install, I do not want to request some extra configuration. I have wished for a long time that all the Linux distributions would add their xsl-stylesheets installation path as a catalog entry, but this hasn't (to my knowledge) happened. Additionally, xsltproc does not have an option for adding a temporary catalog entry that I could see. Of course, this does not solve the problem of finding the .xsl files I need on top of the DocBook ones, or the other problems I mentioned. Thanks anyway, john
