Daniel Veillardfd583412003-04-25 13:22:10 +000034 xmlcatalog is a command line application allowing users to monitor and manipulate XML and SGML catalogs. It is included in libxml2.

36.PP
Daniel Veillardfd583412003-04-25 13:22:10 +000037Its 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 XML and SGML files.

Daniel Veillardfd583412003-04-25 13:22:10 +000051Add an entry to catalog file \fIfilename\fR. \fItype\fR indicates the type of entry. Possible types are 'public', 'system', 'rewriteSystem', 'delegatePublic', 'delegateSystem'amd 'rewriteURI'. \fI'orig'\fR is the original reference to be replaced, and \fI'replace'\fR is the URI of the replacement entity to be used. The \fB--add\fR option will not overwrite \fIfilename\fR, outputing to stdout, unless \fB--noout\fR is used. The \fB--add\fR will always take three parameters even if some of the XML catalog constructs will have only a single argument.

Daniel Veillardfd583412003-04-25 13:22:10 +000053If the \fB--add\fR option is used following the \fB--sgml\fR option, only a single argument, a \fIfilename\fR, is used. This is used to add the name of a catalog file to an SGML supercatalog, a file that contains references to other included SGML catalog files.
