OSX
An SGML System Conforming to International Standard ISO 8879 --
Standard Generalized Markup Language
An SGML Extended Facilities system conforming to
Annex A of International Standard ISO/IEC 10744 --
Hypermedia/Time-based Structuring Language
SYNOPSIS
osx [ option... ] sysid...
DESCRIPTION
Osx converts SGML to XML.
Osx parses and validates the SGML document contained in
sysid...
and writes an equivalent XML document to the standard output.
Osx will warn about SGML constructs which have no XML equivalent.
OPTIONS
The following options are available:
-
-bname,
--encoding=name
-
Use the BCTF name for output.
By default osx uses UTF-8.
-
-csysid,
--catalog=sysid
-
Map public identifiers and entity names to system identifiers
using the catalog entry file whose system identifier is sysid.
This has the same effect as in onsgmls.
-
-C,
--catalogs
-
This has the same effect as in onsgmls.
-
-ddirectory
-
Place output files in
directory.
-
-Ddirectory,
--directory=directory
-
Search
directory
for files specified in system identifiers.
This has the same effect as in onsgmls.
-
-e,
--open-entities
-
Describe open entities in error messages.
-
-ffile,
--error-file=file
-
Redirect errors to
file.
This is useful mainly with shells that do not support redirection
of stderr.
-
-iname,
--include=name
-
This has the same effect as in onsgmls.
-
-ldtd_file
-
Specify that the resulting XML file should conform to the DTD in
dtd_file.
-
-v,
--version
-
Print the version number.
-
-wtype,
--warning=type
-
Control warnings and errors according to
type.
This has the same effect as in onsgmls.
-
-xoption,
--xml-output-option=option
-
Control the XML output according to the value of
option as follows:
-
no-nl-in-tag
-
Don't use newlines inside start-tags.
Usually osx uses newlines inside start-tags so as to reduce the
probability of excessively long lines.
-
id
-
Output attribute declarations for ID attributes.
-
notation
-
Output declarations for notations.
-
ndata
-
Output declarations for external data entities.
XML requires these to be NDATA.
Osx will warn about CDATA and SDATA external data entities and
output them as NDATA entities.
-
cdata
-
Use XML CDATA sections for CDATA marked sections and for elements with a
declared content of CDATA.
-
comment
-
Output comment declarations. Comment declarations in the DTD will not
be output.
-
lower
-
Prefer lower case.
Names that were subjected to upper-case substitution by SGML will be folded
to lower case.
This does not include reserved names; XML requires these to be in upper-case.
-
pi-escape
-
Escape
&<> in the contents of processing
instructions using the amp, lt and
gt entities. This allows processing instructions to
contain the string >?, but requires that applications
handle the escapes.
-
empty
-
Use the
<e/> syntax for element types
e declared as EMPTY.
-
attlist
-
Output a ATTLIST declaration for every element specifying the type of
all attributes. The default will always be
#IMPLIED.
-
report-input-sources
-
Output a processing instruction to report when an input source other
than the main file is opened or closed in the instance. Do not report
any input source changes in the DTD.
-
report-entities
-
Output a processing instruction to report when an external entity
reference has been resolved in the instance. Do not report any entity
resolutions in the DTD.
-
no-expand-external
-
Preserve external entities, write a declaration driver file named "extEntities.dtf", and include that file in the instance's internal subset.
-
no-expand-internal
-
Preserve internal entities, write a declaration driver file named "intEntities.dtf", and include that file in the instance's internal subset.
-
preserve-case
-
Preserve casing as specified in the DTD for element names; attribute names; attribute values which are token lists.
-
no-external-decl
-
Do not include the external entities declaration driver file in the instance's internal subset.
-
no-internal-decl
-
Do not include the internal entities declaration driver file in the instance's internal subset.
-
sdata-as-pis
-
When translating SDATA entities (whether expanding them or providing a
definition for them in the output's internal subset), express them as
processing instructions instead of as general internal entities.
-
no-overwrite
-
When preserving internal or external entities, multiple output files will be written. If this option is specified, do not overwrite existing files; instead, attempt to append a number to the end of the original filename to create a unique filename. Exit with an error if too many (100) such files already exist.
Multiple
-x
options are allowed.
