[Mono-list] Help needed with XSLT transformations (documentation browser)

[Miguel de Icaza]

Hello!

Well, I was thinking along the lines of having various stylesheets, so
to get the class summary, I would do:

	xsltproc format-class.xslt File.xml

To get the `all-in-a-page', I would do:

	xsltproc format-entire-class.xslt File.xml

To get a particular method, I could do (something like, excuse my broken
Xpath):

	xsltproc --param type "/Docs/Members/Method[4]" format-method.xsl
File.xml
