NAME
osx - An SGML System Conforming to International Standard
ISO 8879 -- Standard Generalized Markup Language. An SGML
Extended Facilities system conforming to Annex A of Inter-
national Standard ISO/IEC 10744 -- Hypermedia/Time-based
Structuring Language.
SYNOPSIS
osx [-CeghnRvx] [-aname] [-Aarchitecture] [-bencoding]
[-ccatalog_file] [-ddirectory] [-Ddirectory] [-iname]
[-ffile] [-ldirectory] [-wwarning_type] [-xxml_output_option...]
[sysid...]
DESCRIPTION
osx converts SGML to XML. osx parses and validates the
SGML document contained in .nf .fi and writes an equiva-
lent XML document to the standard output. osx will warn
about SGML constructs which have no XML equivalent.
OPTIONS
The following options are available:
-aname, --activate=name
Make doctype or linkname name active.
-Aname, --architecture=name
Parse with respect to architecture name.
-bencoding, --encoding=encoding
Use the BCTF encoding for output. By default osx
uses UTF-8.
-csysid, --catalog=sysid
Map public identifiers and entity names to system
identifiers using the catalog entry file whose sys-
tem identifier is sysid.
-C, --catalogs
This has the same effect as in onsgmls(1).
-ddirectory, --entity_output_location=directory
Place output files in directory.
-Ddirectory, --directory=directory
Search directory for files specified in system
identifiers. This has the same effect as in ons-
gmls(1).
-e, --open-entities
Describe open entities in error messages.
-Emax_errors, --max-errors=max_errors
Give up after max_errors errors.
-ffile, --error-file=file
Redirect errors to file. This is useful mainly with
shells that do not support redirection of stderr.
-g, --open-elements
Describe open elements in error messages.
-h, --help
Display a help text and exit.
-iname, --include=name
This has the same effect as in onsgmls(1).
-ldtd-file, --dtd_location=dtd-file
Specify that the resulting XML file should conform
to the DTD in dtd-file.
-n, --error-numbers
Show error numbers in error messages.
--references
Show references in error messages.
-R, --restricted
This has the same effect as in onsgmls(1).
-v, --version
Print the version number and exit.
-wtype, --warning=type
Control warnings and errors according to type. This
has the same effect as in onsgmls(1).
-xxml_output_option, --xml-output-option=xml_output_option
Control the XML output according to the value of
xml_output_option as follows:
no-nl-in-tag Don't use newlines inside start-tags.
Usually osx uses newlines inside start-tags so as
to reduce the probability of excessively long
lines.
id Output attribute declarations for ID attributes.
notation Output declarations for notations.
ndata Output declarations for external data enti-
ties. XML requires these to be NDATA. osx will warn
about CDATA and SDATA external data entities and
output them as NDATA entities.
cdata Use XML CDATA sections for CDATA marked
sections and for elements with a declared content
of CDATA.
comment Output comment declarations. Comment decla-
rations in the DTD will not be output.
lower Prefer lower case. Names that were subjected
to upper-case substitution by SGML will be folded
to lower case. This does not include reserved
names; XML requires these to be in upper-case.
pi-escape Escape &<> in the contents of processing
instructions using the amp, lt and gt entities.
This allows processing instructions to contain the
string >?, but requires that applications handle
the escapes.
empty Use the syntax for element types e
declared as EMPTY.
attlist Output an ATTLIST declaration for every
element specifying the type of all attributes. The
default will always be #IMPLIED.
report-input-sources Output a processing instruc-
tion to report when an input source other than the
main file is opened or closed in the instance. Do
not report any input source changes in the DTD.
report-entities Output a processing instruction to
report when an external entity reference has been
resolved in the instance. Do not report any entity
resolutions in the DTD.
no-expand-external Preserve external entities,
write a declaration driver file named "extEnti-
ties.dtf", and include that file in the instance's
internal subset.
no-expand-internal Preserve internal entities,
write a declaration driver file named "intEnti-
ties.dtf", and include that file in the instance's
internal subset.
no-external-decl Do not include the external enti-
ties declaration driver file in the instance's
internal subset.
no-internal-decl Do not include the internal enti-
ties declaration driver file in the instance's
internal subset.
no-output-outside-outdir When preserving external
entities, do not write output files outside the
specified output directory ("." by default). In
other words, if an external entity's system identi-
fier includes enough instances of ".." to cause osx
to write a file outside (above) the output direc-
tory, exit (by default osx will issue a warning but
will write the file and continue.
no-overwrite When preserving internal or external
entities, multiple output files will be written. If
this option is specified, do not overwrite existing
files; instead, attempt to append a number to the
end of the original filename to create a unique
filename. Exit with an error if too many (100) such
files already exist.
preserve-case Preserve casing as specified in the
DTD for element names; attribute names; attribute
values which are token lists.
sdata-as-pis When translating SDATA entities
(whether expanding them or providing a definition
for them in the output's internal subset), express
them as processing instructions instead of as gen-
eral internal entities.
Multiple -x options are allowed.
