[Didier PH Martin] > a) a Lisp document could be made SGML compliant because SGML can let > you define begin and end tag's delimiters (Ex: dsssl). I think there's a little confusion here about DSSSL. DSSSL stylesheets are SGML documents, but they usually use angle-brackets: <style-sheet> <style-specification> <style-specification-body> (default (make sequence)) </style-specification-body> </style-specification> </style-sheet> The parentheses are only character data. I don't think that Lisp could be made SGML compliant; the delimiters could be redefined, but as Steve DeRose notes in _The SGML FAQ Book_, there are some limits to the flexibility of the redefinitions, since some delimiter roles are overloaded. Also, Lisp doesn't have the equivalent of start-tag close, and you can only omit tagc if the next character is stago or etago (ISO 8879:1986, clause 7.4.1.2) which it wouldn't be when you get to the leaves of a structure. -Chris -- <!NOTATION SGML.Geek PUBLIC "-//Anonymous//NOTATION SGML Geek//EN"> <!ENTITY crism PUBLIC "-//O'Reilly//NONSGML Christopher R.
