XPath server 0.0.2

Volume 9, Issue 4; 19 Feb 2025

An updated little hack to leverage Saxon for evaluating XPath expressions in Emacs.

When I said:

But those aren’t likely to be things on the top of my todo list in the near future.

I wasn’t lying, I was mistaken. It’s different.

What happened was, I started using the server while I was editing the XML Calabash documentation. The User Guide and Reference are both divided into a number of different files and I quickly realized that I wanted to be able to search all of the files in the document, not just the one I was editing.

So now the server will watch directories and search across them. There are a few updates to the REST API as well.

Get the latest, if that’s the sort of thing you want to do.

Now, I’m going back to other things. Honest.
