Luigi,

thanks so much for your patient replies. I have now begun to play with  
python's lxml. It offers a lot, maybe too much for a beginner. One  
advantage for my immediate needs that I see is that it offers the  
possibility to use Python's regular expressions and control  
structures, so this may make coding easier to maintain and adapt that  
in the rather clumsy xslt syntax; it may be a big help for the rather  
messy OpenOffice xml that I want to process.

I had already tried w2latex a while ago. I found it very limited and  
lacking documentation, so I haven't pursued this track.

Again, thanks for getting me started!

Thomas
