     <para>
       The xmllint program parses one or more XML files, specified on the
       command line as <replaceable>xmlfile</replaceable> (or the standard
       input if the filename provided is - ). It prints various
       types of output, depending upon the options selected. It is useful for
       detecting errors both in <acronym>XML</acronym> code and in the
       <acronym>XML</acronym> parser itself.
