DOCBOOK-APPS: Example of an XSL customization layer
Since it sounds like a number of people are starting to experiment
with XSL customization layers, I thought I'd share one that works.

The attached file, e-smith.xsl, is a customization layer that I've
been using for my XSL experiments.  I have a second one that I
call "e-smith-chunk.xsl" which is identical expect that the 
xsl:import statement points to "chunk.xsl" instead of "docbook.xsl".
A couple of the items in the file apply only to chunking - for 
simplicity I just have one base stylesheet, so you can ignore those
parameters in this file.

This stylesheet has worked fine with xsltproc to create a single HTML
file from an XML file.  With the path changed to 'chunk.xsl', it has
worked great to take a single XML file and chunk it out to 110+ 
individual HTML files.

Anyway, here's a customization layer that works and I offer it for anyone
else who wants to play with this stuff and learn more.

Note that you will need to change the xsl:import statement to have
the correct path to where Norm's XSL stylesheets are installed.

Have fun,
Dan

P.S. Suggestions about improvements to the stylesheet are, of course,
very welcome!
