Announcement for the alpha release of SgmlQL -- an SGML/HTML query language tool developed within the MULTEXT project. "SgmlQL is a programming language for the manipulation of SGML/HTML documents. . . SgmlQL is based on SQL. It is a functional language, i.e., a language in which all data and program statements are expressions, or queries, and which are recursively evaluated. It allows for manipulation of numbers, strings, (SGML) names, elements, attribute-value sets, documents, and (mixed content) lists, and can perform complex operations on these objects. SgmlQL works on normalised SGML (closing tags present, etc., as output of the spam and sgmlnorm normalizers, or the nsgmls parser)."
