Library: XML and Parsing, Rich Text Format (RTF) (OMRTF) Import: omrtf.xmd

Declaration

  define external markup-parser function rtf-parse
         scan value parser-input data

Argument definitions

data

Any OmniMark source.

The RTF Parser is invoked in a manner similar to OmniMark's built-in SGML and XML parsers, differing only in specifying "markup-parse rtf" instead of "do xml-parse" or "do sgml-parse".

  import "omrtf.xmd" unprefixed
  process
    do markup-parse rtf
     scan file #args[1]
       output "%c"
    done

markup-parse tells OmniMark to invoke an external markup parser, and rtf tells OmniMark which external markup parser it is.

The scan argument is used for the same purpose as with OmniMark's built-in parsers to provide input to the parser. It can be any OmniMark source.

The omrtf.xmd library defines the rtf markup parser function and the information that can be passed to it on invocation. The RTF parser invokes element and other OmniMark markup rules in the same manner as OmniMark's built-in parsers.

The following markup rules can be fired by the rtf parser:

• element
• data-content
• translate
• content queries

Within an element rule the following items are avaialble:

• attribute
• attributes
• ancestor queries
• %q
• %v
