Re: Muenchian method, and keys 'n stuff

What would be useful in quite a lot of situations is
unicode-character-from-int()
so you'd be able to do 
<xsl:for-each select=97 to 122">
       ...unicode-character-from-int(.)
</xsl:for-each>

   It's interesting that you can build a sequence of integers in XPath
   2.0 with the 'to' operator, but not a sequence of characters. For this
   situation, it would be really nice to be able to do:

     <xsl:for-each select="'a' to 'z'">
       ...
     </xsl:for-each>

   I suppose the other possibility would be tokenize function so you
   could do:

     <xsl:for-each select="tokenize('abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz', '')">
       ...
     </xsl:for-each>

   to achieve the same thing (although a little more laboriously).

   Cheers,
