I really like the compactness of FP, thanks for posting this solution.
I have a couple of questions:
A: <xsl:text/>
What is the purpose of a closed xsl:text?
This causes the following whitespace (particularly the NL) not to be
output. A trick I once learned from Jeni Tennison.
B: I don't see "str-zipWith.xsl" in FXSL ... at least not my copy (1.0
and 2.0 both)
Yes. It isn't there and this is the sole reason I included the text of
this stylesheet module in my answer.
C: ($arg1 = $arg2) +1
This obviously includes/excluedes the asterisk based on equality, but
I don't know XSLT enough to understand it. How do you add 1 to a
boolean? Is it like in C where true==0 and false==1 (or anything but
0)? Actually, for this to work true==1 and false==0?
In XSLT 1.0 when using a boolean value in an arithmetic (numeric)
expression -- that is as an argument of an operator or function that
requires a numeric argument, the boolean value is converted to a
number using the following rule:
number(true()) = 1
number(false()) = 0
