 People can either embed the library in their application or use xsltproc, the command line processing tool. 
This library is free software and can be reused in commercial applications.

 * Libxslt is a C implementation
 * Libxslt is based on libxml for XML parsing, tree manipulation and XPath support
 * It is written in plain C, making as few assumptions as possible, and sticking closely to ANSI C/POSIX for 
easy embedding. Should works on Linux/Unix/Windows.

-## FAQ
-
-### Troubles compiling or linking programs using libxslt
-
-Usually the problem comes from the fact that the compiler doesn't get the right compilation or linking 
flags. There is a small shell script `xslt-config` which is installed as part of libxslt usual install 
process which provides those flags. Use
-
-`xslt-config --cflags`
-
-to get the compilation flags and
-
-`xslt-config --libs`
-
-to get the linker flags. Usually this is done directly from the Makefile as:
-
-`` CFLAGS=`xslt-config --cflags` ``
-
-`` LIBS=`xslt-config --libs` ``
-
-Note also that if you use the EXSLT extensions from the program then you should prepend `-lexslt` to the 
LIBS options
-
-### Passing parameters on the xsltproc command line doesn't work
-
-`xsltproc --param test alpha foo.xsl foo.xml`
-
-The param does not get passed and ends up as "".
-
-In a nutshell do a double escaping at the shell prompt:
-
-`xsltproc --param test "'alpha'" foo.xsl foo.xml`
-
-i.e. the string value is surrounded by " and ' then terminated by ' and ". Libxslt interpret the parameter 
values as XPath expressions, so the string ->`alpha`<- is intepreted as the node set matching this string. 
You really want ->`'alpha'`<- to be passed to the processor. And to allow this you need to escape the quotes 
at the shell level using ->`"'alpha'"`<- .
-
-or use
-
-`xsltproc --stringparam test alpha foo.xsl foo.xml`
