of shell commands in similar way it is done for plain text files using
UNIX grep, sed, awk, diff, patch, join, etc commands.

documents on UNIX shell command prompt as well as for automated XML processing
with shell scripts.

Search XML files for matches to given XPath expressions
Apply XSLT stylesheets to XML documents (including EXSLT support, and passing
parameters to stylesheets)
Query XML documents (ex. query for value of some elements of attributes,
sorting, etc)
Modify or edit XML documents (ex. delete some elements)
Format or "beautify" XML documents (as changing indentation, etc)
Fetch XML documents using http:// or ftp:// URLs
Browse tree structure of XML documents (in similar way to 'ls' command for
directories)
