#markup-point event
    

Use #markup-point to signal a markup-point-event to a do markup-parse.

In the following example, page breaks are inserted following every section element. The page breaks are represented as processing instructions. In the function insert-page-breaks, a markup-point-event containing the necessary processing instruction is prepared by invoking do xml-parse on an otherwise empty input instance, and storing the markup-point-event that is created. The element rule for section inserts this markup-point-event after every section element. The result is a markup event stream which is identical to the original, save that every section element event is followed by a processing instruction event (that is, a markup-point-event) representing a page break.
