    2: .SH NAME
    3: libxml \- library used to parse XML files
    4: .SH DESCRIPTION
    5: The
    6: .I  libxml
    7: library is used to parse XML files. 
    8: Its internal document repesentation is as close as possible to the 
    9: .I DOM 
   10: (Document Object Model) interface,
   11: an API for accessing XML or HTML structured documents.
   12: .LP
   13: The
   14: .I libxml
   15: library also has a 
   16: .IR SAX -like
   17: interface, 
   18: which is designed to be compatible with 
   19: .IR expat (1).
   20: NOTE:
   21: .IR SAX , 
   22: the Simple API for XML,
   23: is a standard interface for event-based XML parsing,
   24: developed collaboratively by the members of the XML-DEV mailing list, 
   25: currently hosted by OASIS.
   26: The
   27: .I expat
   28: library is a XML 1.0 parser written in C,
   29: which aims to be fully conforming. 
   30: It is currently not a validating XML processor.
   31: .LP
   32: The
   33: .I libxml 
   34: library now includes a nearly complete 
   35: .I XPath 
   36: implementation. 
   37: The
   38: .I XPath
   39: (XML Path Language) is a language for addressing parts of an 
   40: XML document,
   41: designed to be used by both 
   42: .I XSLT 
   43: and 
   44: .IR XPointer .
   45: .LP
   46: The
   47: .I libxml 
   48: library exports Push and Pull type parser interfaces for both XML and 
   49: .IR html .
