4: <span class="application">xmlcatalog</span> is a command line application
5: allowing users to monitor and manipulate <span class="acronym">XML</span> and

8: </p><p>
9: Its functions can be invoked from a single command from the command line,
10: or it can perform multiple functions in interactive mode. It can operate
11: on both <span class="acronym">XML</span> and <span class="acronym">SGML</span> files.
