I have code examples in some doc that are post processed in AngularJS.
In some cases the code examples include {{ or }} which is
significant to Angular. I have a simple replace that I am using to wrap
a no-process span around the curly braces so the Angular process will
ignore them.

  *<**xsl:value-of **select*=/"replace(.,'(\{\{|\}\})','&lt;span
class=&quot;noProcess&quot;&gt;$1&lt;/span&gt;')"/*/>*

  The only problem is that the character entity is being output as a
character entity instead of less-than and greater-than characters.

  Is there a way to trick replace into outputting the less-than and
greater-than characters?

Depending on the XSLT processor and the context using
  <xsl:value-of disable-output-escaping="yes" select="..."/>
is a hack that can help, but

  So unless theres a way to trick replace Ill have to try
analyze-string and see if I can get what I need there.
