XML

Hyperlatex provides a number of ways to access the XML-tag level.

The \xmlent{entity} command creates the XML entity description &entity;. It is useful if you need symbols from the ISO Latin 1 alphabet which are not predefined in Hyperlatex. You could, for instance, define a macro for the fraction ¼ as follows:

   \T \newcommand{\onequarter}{$1/4$}
   \W \newcommand{\onequarter}{\xmlent{##188}}

The most basic command is \xml{tag}, which creates the XML tag <tag>. This command is used in the definition of most of Hyperlatex's commands and environments, and you can use it yourself to achieve effects that are not available in Hyperlatex directly. Note that \xml looks up any attributes for the tag that may have been set with \xmlattributes. If you want to avoid this, use the starred version \xml*.

Finally, the rawxml environment allows you to write plain XML, if you so desire. Everything between \begin{rawxml} and \end{rawxml} will simply be included literally in the XML output. Alternatively, you can include a file of XML literally using \xmlinclude.
