 37  
 38  \fBxmlcatalog\fR
 39  is a command line application allowing users to monitor and manipulate
 40  XML
 41  and
 42  SGML
 43  catalogs\&. It is included in
 44  \fBlibxml\fR(3)\&.
 45  .PP
 46  Its functions can be invoked from a single command from the command line, or it can perform multiple functions in interactive mode\&. It can operate on both
 47  XML
 48  and
 49  SGML
 50  files\&.
 51  .SH "OPTIONS"
 52  .PP
 53  
 54  \fBxmlcatalog\fR
 55  accepts the following options (in alphabetical order):
 56  .PP
 57  \fB\-\-add \fR\fB\fITYPE\fR\fR\fB \fR\fB\fIORIG\fR\fR\fB \fR\fB\fIREPLACE\fR\fR\fB \fR
 58  .RS 4
 59  Add an entry to
 60  CATALOGFILE\&.
 61  \fITYPE\fR
 62  indicates the type of entry\&. Possible types are:
 63  \fIpublic\fR, \fIsystem\fR, \fIuri\fR, \fIrewriteSystem\fR, \fIrewriteURI\fR, \fIdelegatePublic\fR, \fIdelegateSystem\fR, \fIdelegateURI\fR, \fInextCatalog\fR\&.
 64  \fIORIG\fR
 65  is the original reference to be replaced, and
 66  \fIREPLACE\fR
 67  is the
 68  URI
 69  of the replacement entity to be used\&. The
 70  \fB\-\-add\fR
 71  option will not overwrite
 72  CATALOGFILE, outputting to
 73  stdout, unless
 74  \fB\-\-noout\fR
 75  is used\&. The
 76  \fB\-\-add\fR
 77  will always take three parameters even if some of the
 78  XML
 79  catalog constructs will have only a single argument\&.
 80  .RE
 81  .PP
 82  \fB\-\-add \fR\fB\fIFILENAME\fR\fR
 83  .RS 4
 84  If the
 85  \fB\-\-add\fR
 86  option is used following the
 87  \fB\-\-sgml\fR
 88  option, only a single argument, a
 89  \fIFILENAME\fR, is used\&. This is used to add the name of a catalog file to an
 90  SGML
 91  supercatalog, a file that contains references to other included
 92  SGML
 93  catalog files\&.
 94  .RE
 95  .PP
 96  \fB\-\-create\fR
 97  .RS 4
 98  Create a new
 99  XML
100  catalog\&. Outputs to
101  stdout, ignoring
102  \fIfilename\fR
103  unless
104  \fB\-\-noout\fR
105  is used, in which case it creates a new catalog file
106  \fIfilename\fR\&.
107  .RE
108  .PP
109  \fB\-\-del \fR\fB\fIVALUE(S)\fR\fR
110  .RS 4
111  Remove entries from
112  \fICATALOGFILE\fR
113  matching
114  \fIVALUE(S)\fR\&. The
115  \fB\-\-del\fR
116  option will not overwrite
117  \fICATALOGFILE\fR, outputting to
118  stdout, unless
119  \fB\-\-noout\fR
120  is used\&.
121  .RE
122  .PP
123  \fB\-\-noout\fR
124  .RS 4
125  Save output to the named file rather than outputting to
126  stdout\&.

161  \fBxmlcatalog\fR
162  with the
163  \fB\-\-shell \fR\fB\fICATALOGFILE\fR\fR
164  option opens a command line shell allowing interactive access to the catalog file identified by
165  \fICATALOGFILE\fR\&. Invoking the shell provides a command line prompt after which the following commands (described in alphabetical order) can be entered\&.

173  \fIORIG\fR
174  is the original reference to be replaced, and

180  option will not overwrite
181  CATALOGFILE, outputting to
182  stdout, unless
