DTDFLATTEN

NAME

dtdflatten − Flatten an SGML/XML DTD.

SYNOPSIS

  dtdflatten [options]

DESCRIPTION

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.

OPTIONS

−−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.
