XML Processing (Newbie Question)

XML Processing (Newbie Question)

[Alexandre Enkerli]

Thanks for answers about my previous query on processing XML output 
from an exam-making program. I should have been more specific, though. 
I don't know what to do with these instructions... Should I put them in 
a filter file? If so, how do I call it from the command-line?
Sorry for being so ignorant of ConTeXt ways.
A private answer would help.

Thanks!

Simple way: put these macro definitions at the top of your file.

Slightly more complicated way: put these macro definitions in a
separate file, and input that with the \input command.

The Context XML way: put these macro definitions in an XML filter
file, which you call xtag-nnn.tex, where nnn is your name for the
filter file, and then run your file with the command 'texexec
--xmlfilter=nnn yourfile.xml'.

put them in a file, say myenv.tex, then you can directly process the xml 
file with:

texexec --env=myenv yourfile.xml
