* BUG REPORTS/ENCHANCEMENTS

I would be glad to accept bug reports and, especially, enhancements.
Use `xsl-submit-bug-report' for bug reports.


* INSTALLATION

1. Unzip the distribution.

   This should extract the files listed in the manifest above.

2. Copy the .el files to your emacs site-lisp directory (e.g.,
   /usr/local/lib/emacs/site-lisp).

3. Byte compile the .el files using M-x byte-compile-file and
   supplying the path name of each file.

   If you byte-compiled a previous version of the files, you must
   byte-compile the new files (or remove the old .elc files) so that
   autoload loads the correct versions.

4. Add the elisp code in dot_emacs to your .emacs file.

5. When you visit a file with an extension of .xsl, xsl-mode will
   automatically be loaded.
