<h2>Description</h2>
-<p>TestXSLT is a small tool for experimenting with XSLT in a convenient way
-on Mac OS X. It uses the Sablotron XSL processor from <a href="http://www.gingerall.com/charlie/ga/xml/p_sab.xml">http://www.gingerall.com/charlie/ga/xml/p_sab.xml</a> and the Gnome libxslt processor from <a href="http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/">http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/</a>.</p>
+<p>TestXSLT is a free tool for learning, experimenting with and using the XSL language (both the XSLT and the XSL-FO parts) in a convenient way on Mac OS X. It offers several XSLT processors (Sablotron, Gnome LibXSLT, Saxon and Xalan-J) as well as the Apache FOP XSL-FO rendering engine which produces on-screen previews as well as PDF files. For authors of stylesheets which produce HTML, it makes use of the WebKit HTML rendering engine, allowing previews right in the application.</p>
<p>The program takes an .xml and an .xsl file and either displays the result of the transformation in an output window or writes it to a file.</p>
<p>Comments, feedback and feature suggestions are welcome to the address above.</p>
-<p>If you own BBEdit, I suggest that you check out my "BBEdit XSLT Glossary" package, available from my homepage. TestXSLT has been
-optimized to work well together with BBEdit. You can edit and save an XSLT file in BBEdit, switch back to TestXSLT and
-the XSLT code will be updated from disk immediately.</p>

+ <li>Embedded the FOP XSL-FO rendering engine from the Apache Project. This means that you can now view the result of a translation which produces XSL-FO instructions directly in the application. You can also save the output as a PDF file. With this addition, TestXSLT is now a useful learning tool for the XSL-FO language.</li>
+ <li>A new, fourth XSLT engine has been added, the Java Xalan processor from the Apache project.</li>
