Description: XIST is an extensible HTML and XML generator. XIST is also a XML parser with a
        very simple and pythonesque tree API. Every XML element type corresponds to a
        Python class and these Python classes provide a conversion method to transform
        the XML tree (e.g. into HTML). XIST can be considered 'object oriented XSLT'.
        
        XIST also includes the following modules:
        
        * ``ll.astyle`` can be used for colored terminal output (via ANSI escape
        sequences).
        
        * ``ll.color`` provides classes and functions for handling RGB color values.
        This includes the ability to convert between different color models
        (RGB, HSV, HLS) as well as to and from CSS format, and several functions
        for modifying and mixing colors.
        
        * ``ll.make`` is an object oriented make replacement. Like make it allows
        you to specify dependencies between files and actions to be executed
        when files don't exist or are out of date with respect to one
        of their sources. But unlike make you can do this in a object oriented
        way and targets are not only limited to files, but you can implement
        e.g. dependencies on database records.
        
        * ``ll.misc`` provides several small utility functions and classes.
        
        * ``ll.sisyphus`` provides classes for running Python scripts as cron jobs.
        
        * ``ll.daemon`` can be used on UNIX to fork a daemon process.
        
        * ``ll.url`` provides classes for parsing and constructing RFC 2396
        compliant URLs.
        
        * ``ll.xpit`` is a module that makes it possible to embed Python
        expressions in text (as XML style processing instructions).
        
        * ``ll.ul4c`` is compiler for a templating language with similar capabilities
        to `Django's templating language`__. ``UL4`` templates are compiled to an
        internal bytecode format, which makes it possible to implement template
        renderers in other languages and makes the template code "secure" (i.e.
        template code can't open or delete files).
        
        __ http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/templates/
        
        * ``ll.xml_codec`` contains a complete codec for encoding and decoding XML.
        
        
        Changes in 3.3 (released 07/11/2008)
        ------------------------------------
        
        * XIST has gained its fourth templating language: ``UL4`` the
        "Universal Layout Language". This templating language is similar in
        capabilities to `Django's templating language`__. However ``UL4`` templates
        are compiled to a bytecode format, which makes it possible to implement
        template renderers in other languages and makes the template code "secure"
        (i.e.template code can't open or delete files).
        
        __ http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/templates/
        
        * ``ll.make`` has gained new actions: ``GZipAction``,
        ``GUnzipAction``, ``CallFuncAction``,  ``CallMethAction``,
        ``UL4CompileAction``, ``UL4DumpAction`` and ``UL4LoadAction``.
        
        * The version number for ``cssutils`` has been bumped to 0.9.5rc1.
        
        * Nodes of type ``ll.xist.xsc.Comment`` and ``ll.xist.xsc.DocType``
        are now simply ignored when publishing instead of generating an exception.
        
        * All actions in ``ll.make`` no longer check whether their inputs are
        action objects. Non-action objects are simply treated as ancient input data.
        This also means that most action classes have an ``input`` parameter in
        their constructor again, as this input could now be a constant.
        
        * Most attributes of action objects in ``ll.make`` can now be action objects
        themselves, so for example the name of the encoding to be used in an
        ``EncodeAction`` can be the output of another action.
        
        * ``ll.make.ImportAction`` has been dropped as now the module object can
        be used directly (e.g. as the input for an ``XISTPoolAction`` object).
        
        * ``ll.misc.xmlescape`` now escapes ``'`` as ``&#39;`` for IE compatibility.
        
        * Functions ``ll.misc.xmlescape_text`` and ``ll.misc.xmlescape_attr``
        have been added that implement the functionality from XIST 3.2.5 and earlier.
        
        * The default parser for XIST is expat now. To switch back to sgmlop simply
        pass an ``SGMLOPParser`` object to the parsing functions::
        
        >>> from ll.xist import parsers
        >>> node = parsers.parsestring("<a>", parser=parsers.SGMLOPParser())
        
        * TOXIC has been split into a compiler module ``ll.toxicc`` and an XIST
        namespace ``ll.xist.ns.toxic``. TOXIC now supports output for
        SQL Server. The function ``xml2ora`` as been renamed to ``compile``
        (and has a new ``mode`` argument for specifying the database type).
        
        * The ``targetroot`` parameter for ``ll.make.XISTConvertAction.__init__``
        has been renamed to ``root``.
