The real specification of Smart ASCII is the script used to turn some 
set of formatting conventions into a specific XML vocabulary.  There 
is an example in the article I referenced, but it is tailored to one 
specific environment, not the canonical specification of Smart ASCII.

I'm not sure what the "expansion or list of XPath like statements" 
refers to.
