Seems to work fine.

And this tokenizes the text() until it reaches a newline or
a child element (like SSD). Does this mean that if a SSD was
in the middle of a line (they aren't) for some reason you'd
get <l>blah blah</l><SSD value="foo"/><l>blah blah</> ?

would that have the same effect? (another XSLT2 thing I've not
played with yet.)
To summarise, this is what I've don't with the xsl:
--------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" >
<xsl:output indent="yes" />
<xsl:strip-space elements="body"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="body">
<body>
<xsl:apply-templates select="TITLE|FRONT"/>
<xsl:for-each-group select="node() except (TITLE|FRONT)"
group-starting-with="SN">
<SN value="{@value}">
<xsl:for-each-group select="current-group()[position() > 1]"
group-starting-with="Q">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="not(self::Q)">
<xsl:apply-templates select="current-group()" />
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="current-group()[last()][self::SSD]">
<Q value="{@value}">
<xsl:apply-templates select="(current-group() except .)
[position() != last()]" />
</Q>
<xsl:apply-templates select="current-group()[last()]" />
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<Q value="{@value}">
<xsl:apply-templates select="current-group() except ." />
</Q>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:for-each-group>
</SN>
</xsl:for-each-group>
</body>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="SSD|FRONT|TITLE">
<xsl:copy-of select="." />
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="text()">
<xsl:if test=". !=''">
<xsl:for-each select="tokenize(., '\n')">
<l><xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(.)" /></l>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
------
Since it seems to work I'll assume I've done the change
from copy-of to apply-templates ok. I suppose what I'd be
tempted to do next is make it more general so that it can
be applied to similarly structured files with slightly different
names. Perhaps use variables/params to allow these to be easily
changed?
Thanks again for your generous help,
James
