David,
This is good. I indeed have a long history of ksh and csh scripting
(started in 1987 at AT&T, at my current job programmed an entire
document management system in csh with history, locking and archiving),
and moved to programming Perl in 1999. Like it very much, but my Perl
programs indeed look like shell scripts, and my XSLT only recently
started using the 'xsl:template match=' way of working.
You convinced me with the beauty of the XSLT, I'll improve my two
templates to work this way.
Thanks very much for teaching me these new methods/way of thinking.
