I worked out something that managable.

add ENTITYs for empty text (&et;), space (&sp;), indent (&in;)
and newline (&nl;) to the styel sheet:

<!DOCTYPE foo [
<!ENTITY et "<xsl:text/>">
<!ENTITY sp "<xsl:text> </xsl:text>">
<!ENTITY in "<xsl:text>   </xsl:text>">
<!ENTITY nl "<xsl:text>&#xA;</xsl:text>">
]>

Then ehis compact little beast of a tempalte:

<xsl:template match="foo">
  &et;begin&sp;<xsl:value-of select="name"/>&sp;{&nl;
  &in;<xsl:value-of select="body"/>&nl;
  &in;}
</xsl:template>

on this xml

<foo>
 <name>bar</name>
 <body>y=a+b*c;</body>
</foo>

produces this:

begin bar {
  y=a+b*c;
  }

which is what i want.
