In the faq (docbook and xslt) I generally differentiate between a 'full' program (use programlisting) and a snippet that is being discussed (use literllayout). I'd generally support a new element to try and capture the idea of an extract from a file/listing/etc. fileoutput as such an element name strikes be as the best option, I am less keen on extending the attribute lists. It still misses my 'snippet' or filextract sementics, but is closer than the vague literallayout or (my case frequently wrong) programlisting. Regards DaveP
