use xsl to output plain text

  • You can define a template to match on script/command and eliminate the xsl:for-each
  • concat() can be used to shorten the expression and save you from explicitly inserting so many <xsl:text> and <xsl:value-of> elements.
  • The use of an entity reference &#xA; for the carriage return, rather than relying on preserving the line-break between your <xsl:text> element is a bit more safe, since code formatting won’t mess up your line breaks. Also, for me, it reads as an explicit line-break and is easier to understand the intent.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" 
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" >
    <xsl:output method="text" omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="no"/>

    <xsl:template match="script/command">
        <xsl:value-of select="concat('at -f '
                    ,username
                    ,' '
                    ,startTime/@hours
                    ,':'
                    ,startTime/@minutes
                    ,' '
                    ,startDate
                    ,'&#xA;')"/>
    </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
