Kernow is an easy way to automate a stylesheet. It has the ability to
process all the files in a directory and subdirectories.

If this happens often, I'd look into using XQuery with updates.
If it's a one-off, or if you want to use XSLT :-), or if it's done often
but the files are new or changed, maybe use lstoxml to make an XML
document that reflects the directory structure, and process that.
You may find it simpler to process all the files and then at the end,
outside XSLT, move the new directory hierarchy into place. That way if
something goes wrong you don't lose data. Or, you're much less likely
to lose data :-) (especially with a journalling filesystem).
