18 <h3>About</h3>
20 <p>
21 cxml-stp is an alternative to the
22 W3C's <a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/cxml/dom.html">DOM</a>,
23 which cxml also implements. It was written
24 by <a href="mailto:david@lichteblau.com">David Lichteblau</a> as an
25 add-on library for
26 <a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/cxml">Closure XML</a> and is
27 available under an X11-style license.

46 <p>
47 cxml-stp needs
48 <a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/cxml">Closure XML</a>,
49 <a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/alexandria/">Alexandria</a>,
50 and <a href="http://common-lisp.net/project/plexippus-xpath/">Plexippus
51 XPath</a>.
52 </p>
53 <p>
54 <a href="http://www.cliki.net/asdf">ASDF</a> is used for
55 compilation. Register the .asd file, e.g. by symlinking it,
56 then compile cxml-stp using <tt>asdf:operate</tt>.
57 </p>
58 <pre>$ ln -sf `pwd`/cxml-stp.asd /path/to/your/registry/
59 * (asdf:operate 'asdf:load-op :cxml-stp)</pre>
60 <p>
61 <i>Implementation-specific notes:</i>
62 At this point, cxml-stp is written to work with Lisp strings
63 (as opposed to runes and rods), and is meant to be used on
64 Lisp implementations with Unicode support.

79 There is also a rough "STP for DOM
80 users" <a href="DOM-COMPARISON">comparison</a> which should be
81 useful if you have a specific DOM function in mind and are looking
82 for STP's equivalent.
