Subject: externalRef versus include
I'm having a hard time fully understanding the
difference between <externalRef> and <include>. I realize
<include> can only appear as a child of a <grammar> element whereas
<externalRef> is not limited in this way. On the other hand, I'm not sure
when you would want to use <include> but not <externalRef>. Am I
right in assuming that the only circumstance where you would *have* to use
<include> instead of <externalRef> is when you want to combine
definitions from multiple grammars (using the "combine" attribute)?
Maybe the tutorial needs to say something about
<externalRef> versus <include>, or at least this topic should be
covered in the FAQ.
