+ README file for the libxslt extensions
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+$Id: README.LIBXSLT 7877 2008-03-08 04:07:52Z xmldoc $
+
+These are XSLT extensions written in Python for use with the DocBook XML
+stylesheets and the libxslt library[1].
+
+Currently, the only available extension is a function for adjusting column
+widths in tables. For more information, see the section describing the
+equivalent Java extension in "DocBook XSL: The Complete Guide"[2].
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Preparations
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+In addition to libxml2 and libxslt, the following software needs to
+be installed before you start using the extensions:
+
+1. Python[3].
+
+2. Python bindings for libxml2/libxslt. Most distributions of
+ libxml2/libxslt for Unix/Linux include these bindings.
+ A native Windows port is provided by Stéphane Bidoul[4].
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Installation of the extensions
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+No special installation step is needed.
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+How to use the extensions
+----------------------------------------------------------------------
+Instead of using xsltproc, you run a Python program (xslt.py). The
+command has this general form:
+
+python xslt.py xmlfile xslfile [outputfile] [param1=val1 [param2=val]...]
+
+Modify paths, filenames, and parameters as needed. Make sure to set
+the "use.extensions" and "tablecolumns.extension" parameters to 1.
