[ANN] XMLSpectrum support for XPath 3.0 Candidate Recommendation

Dear list,

I'm pleased to announce that XMLSpectrum has been updated to provide
syntax-highlighted HTML rendering for the new XPath 3.0 Candidate
Recommendation.

As well as support for standalone XPath there's also
syntax-highlighting for the popular XML-formatted languages that host
this, including XSLT (up to 3.0), XML Schema (up to 1.1), Schematron
and XProc.

By default, the formatting of hosting XML languages is preserved
(including indentation for attributes and their contents); however,
reformatting options are available with special emphasis on aligning
multi-line attributes and resolving existing indentation issues.

XMLSpectrum is a standard XSLT 2.0 solution (tested on Saxon-HE) with
no dependencies on extension functions. This is designed to be run
either as a standalone XSLT transform from the command-line or within
other solutions, such as an XProc pipeline.

The CSS used for styling the HTML uses the popular Solarized color
theme (light or dark), but this can be modified to needs.

XMLSpectrum is open source, the project and further documentation and
samples is available on GitHub at:

Thanks
