This example is contained in this package as a file in the bin directory. It will output

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE foo SYSTEM "foo.dtd" [ <!ATTLIST bar id ID #IMPLIED> ]>
<?xml-stylesheet href="xsl/foo.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
<foo xml:lang="is">
<!-- Lorem ipsum &amp; dolor. -->
<bar id="my-bar">sed diam &lt;nonumy&gt; eirmod tempor</bar>
<baz>consetetur sadipscing elitr</baz>
</foo>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE foo SYSTEM "foo.dtd" [ <!ATTLIST bar id ID #IMPLIED> ]><?xml-stylesheet href="xsl/foo.xsl" type="text/xsl"?><foo xml:lang="is"><!-- Lorem ipsum &amp; dolor. --><bar id="my-bar">sed diam &lt;nonumy&gt; eirmod tempor</bar><baz>consetetur sadipscing elitr</baz></foo>
