A Makefile drives the whole thing. Therein, xsltproc is used to preprocess the
*.xml document and, with different options, generate an output containing
either the questions or the answers -- in docbook (xml). That is then passed
through the "usual docbook processing" for formatting as either hardcopy or
HTML. I'm very comfortable with Makefiles so that was the "best way" for me.
In the case in question, the "customer" wanted only hardcopy (to administer
and then grade the test after I had returned to the US).
