then transforming the XML with the command 'xsltproc dir.xsl dir.xml' produces the following:
output:
<div id='articles'> <ul> <li>mjournal.xml</li> <li>projxmlhelper.rb</li> <li>feedpopulated.rb</li> <li>squrl_handler.rb</li> <li>snurl.cgi</li> <li>dynalert.cgi</li> <li>password_handler.rb</li> <li>category.rb</li> <li>gwd.rb</li> <li>new-journal-entry.cgi</li> </ul> </div>
