Install:

transfrmx is always called from GNU Emacs 20.6 that ported to MacOS by Andrew Choi.

You can get GNU Emacs and GNU fonts from `http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mac-emacs/emacs-20.6-mac-bin-d5.smi.bin' and `http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mac-emacs/GNU-Fonts.sea.bin'.

Place this program into the folder where Emacs CW exists.

Place xslide into the folder `/emacs-20.6/site-lisp'. xslide (http://www.menteith.com/xslide/data/xslide.zip) is described by Emacs-lisp to suppot XSL transformation, is developed by Tony Graham.

Change the following code in `/emacs-20.6/site-lisp/xslide-process.el'

    (defcustom xsl-process-command
      (list
       ;; TransforMiix
       "transfrmx -i %i -s %s -o %o"
       ;; XT Windows executable
       "xt %i %s %o"
       ;; XT Java
       "java com.jclark.xsl.Driver %i %s %o"
       ;; Instant Saxon
       "saxon -o %o %i %s"
       ;; Instant Saxon using xml-stylesheet PI
       "saxon -o %o %i"
       ;; Saxon
       "java com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet -o %o %i %s"
       ;; Saxon using xml-stylesheet PI
       "java com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet -o %o %i")
      "*The shell command to process an XSL document.
    This is a `format' control string that by default should contain three
    `%s' conversion specifications: the first will be replaced by the
    value of xsl-process-input-file \(or the empty string, if nil\); the
    second will be replaced by xsl-process-stylesheet-file \(or the empty
    string, if nil\); the third will be replaced by
    xsl-process-output-file \(or the empty string, if nil\).
    If `xsl-process-files' is non-nil, the format string should contain
    one `%s' conversion specification for each element of its result.
    If xsl-process-command is a list, then every element should be a
    string.  The strings will be tried in order and %-sequences in the
    string will be replaced according to the list below, if the string contains
    %-sequences with no replacement value the next string will be tried.
    %b means the visited file of the current buffer
    %i means the value of xsl-process-input-file
    %s means the value of xsl-process-stylesheet-file
    %o means the value of xsl-process-output-file"
      :type '(repeat :tag "Commands" string)
      :group 'xsl-process)

Call:

1. transfrmx is invoked by call-process of Emacs.
2. Type C-c C-p in XSL-mode of Emacs.
3. You can see `transfrmx -i xml_document -s style_sheet -o output_file' on the echo area. Where, style_sheet is the file name of current buffer file name, and xml_document and output_file are assumed both from style_sheet.
4. You may change this command line.
5. Push return-key, Emacs then calls transfrmx.
6. Emacs displays the output stream on the window.
