Avatox (Ada, Via Asis, To Xml) is an application that traverses Ada
compilation units and outputs their ASIS representation(s) as XML
document(s) in the Avatox Xml Format, AXF, with file extension "axf".
The format of the XML in the document can be configured, and supplemental
source annotations can be generated. The ability to perform XSL stylesheet
transformations is now built-in so that transformations can be immediately
performed on the generated AXF files.

Changes since version 1.5:
    - Added built-in support for XSL transformations by specifying a
      stylesheet and associated options on the command line.
    - Provides finer control over axfPoint element generation. Previously
      it was all or nothing, now specific axfPoint element kinds can be
      selectively generated.
    - Fixed a bug when doing multiple file generation and a units' specs
      and bodies were among those for which AXF was being generated.

(For those who may be interested in performing XSL stylesheet
transformations in Ada, the McKae.XML.XSL.* file hierarchy contains a
(very) minimal binding to libxslt sufficient to take an XML file and a
file containing a stylesheet and perform the transformation.)

Avatox 1.6 is available at www.mckae.com/avatox.html.
