Corpora: <kw> and </kw> (fwd)

[Lou Burnard]

SARA saves its listing files in XML format because it's an open format
not tied to any particular platform or manufacturer. You can format the
files with any other XML aware software or write your own, obviously, but
maybe the most convenient method of displaying/formatting the results is
to use a CSS or XSL stylesheet.

As this seems to be a matter of some general interest, I've written a
brief tutorial on how to do it, with some examples. Go to
http://www.hcu.ox.ac.uk/SARA/Hitlist/

Comments and suggestions for improvement welcome... as are additional
stylesheets or other tutorial materials.
