XML/SGML parser: controlling input

An external-text-entity #document rule allows an OmniMark program to take control of where the input to the SGML or XML parser comes from, without requiring the use of a do sgml-parse or do xml-parse rule. If a down-translate program contains an external-text-entity #document rule then, in stead of reading files from the command line, the SGML/XML parser uses the output of the external-text-entity #document rule.

An external-text-entity #document rule also provides a framework for explicitly providing an entire SGML or XML document entity to the appropriate parser.
