        <span class="command"><strong>xmlcatalog</strong></span> is a command line application allowing users to monitor and
        manipulate <acronym class="acronym">XML</acronym> and <acronym class="acronym">SGML</acronym> catalogs. It
        is included in <span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">libxml</span>(3)</span>.
    </p><p>
        Its functions can be invoked from a single command from the command line,
        or it can perform multiple functions in interactive mode. It can operate
        on both <acronym class="acronym">XML</acronym> and <acronym class="acronym">SGML</acronym> files.
    </p></div><div class="refsect1"><a name="options"></a><h2>OPTIONS</h2><p>

        Invoking <span class="command"><strong>xmlcatalog</strong></span> non-interactively without a designated action
        (imposed with options like <code class="option">--add</code>) will result in a lookup
        of the catalog entry for <em class="replaceable"><code>ENTITIES</code></em> in the
        catalog denoted with <em class="replaceable"><code>CATALOGFILE</code></em>. The
        corresponding entries will be output to the command line. This mode of
        operation, together with <code class="option">--shell</code> mode and non-modifying
        (i.e. without <code class="option">--noout</code>) direct actions, allows for
        a special shortcut of the void <em class="replaceable"><code>CATALOGFILE</code></em>
        specification (possibly expressed as "" in the shell
        environment) appointing the default system catalog. That simplifies the
        handling when its exact location is irrelevant but the respective built-in
        still needs to be consulted.
