New FC3 RPM available: XMLStarlet

I packaged the >>XMLStarlet command-line XML toolkit for Fedora Core 3 Linux. The toolkit offers a bunch of handy XML-processing features in a >>BusyBox-like single executable:

$ xml
XMLStarlet Toolkit: Command line utilities for XML
Usage: xml [<options>] <command> [<cmd-options>]
where <command> is one of:
   ed    (or edit)      - Edit/Update XML document(s)
   sel   (or select)    - Select data or query XML document(s) (XPATH, etc)
   tr    (or transform) - Transform XML document(s) using XSLT
   val   (or validate)  - Validate XML document(s) (well-formed/DTD/XSD/RelaxNG)
   fo    (or format)    - Format XML document(s)
   el    (or elements)  - Display element structure of XML document
   c14n  (or canonic)   - XML canonicalization
   ls    (or list)      - List directory as XML
   esc   (or escape)    - Escape special XML characters
   unesc (or unescape)  - Unescape special XML characters
   pyx   (or xmln)      - Convert XML into PYX format (based on ESIS - ISO 8879)
   p2x   (or depyx)     - Convert PYX into XML
<options> are:
   --version            - show version
   --help               - show help
Wherever file name mentioned in command help it is assumed
that URL can be used instead as well.

Type: xml <command> --help <ENTER> for command help

XMLStarlet is a command line toolkit to query/edit/check/transform XML documents (for more information see >>http://xmlstar.sourceforge.net/)

As always, see the RPMs section of the site for downloads and more information on the packages.

(Note: The RPM spec for this packaging required only minor changes from the one distributed with the SRPM on the >>XMLStarlet web site. I'll try to get the author to incorporate my FC3-compatibility changes into the mainstream release.)
