dtdflatten − Flatten an SGML/XML DTD.
dtdflatten [options]
dtdflatten parses a DTD and prints out a flatten/expanded version of it with all parameter entities expanded.
The first non-option-related argument provided on the command-line specifies the file to parse. If no filename is given, then the DTD is read from standard input.
The flatten DTD is printed to standard output unless the "−−output" option is specified.
−−catalog <catalog>
Specify catalog files to parse for resolving external entity references. This option can be specified multiple times.
NOTE: Currently, only SGML Open Catalog format is supported. XML Catalog support is not implemented (yet).
−−debug
Extra debugging output. This option can be specified multiple times to increase the amount of output.
Debugging output is sent to standard error.
−−declaration <file>
Specify the SGML declaration. The SGML declaration is parsed to determine the type of DTD being parsed, XML or SGML . The key parts of the SGML declaration examined are the NAMECASE and CHARSET directives to determine the DTD type.
If no SGML declaration is available, the "−−xml", "−−namecase−general", and "−−namecase−entity" options can be used.
−−output <file>
Output file. If not specified, standard output is used.
−−preserve <entity−name>
Preserve parameter entity declaration denoted by <entity−name>. This option can be specified multiple times.
Note, if <entity−name> matches any portion of a parameter entity, the parameter entity declaration will be preserved.
−−verbose
−−noverbose
Print parsing progress. By default, this option is enabled. Verbose output is sent to standard error.
If "−−debug" is specified, then this option is automatically enabled.
−−version
Print version and synopsis.
−−help
Print synopsis and options available.
−−man
Print manual page.
