+ &xmlcatalog; is a command line application allowing users to monitor and

+ <refentrytitle>libxml</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>3</manvolnum>

+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Its functions can be invoked from a single command from the command line,

+ operation, together with <option>--shell</option> mode and non-modifying
+ (i.e. without <option>--noout</option>) direct actions, allows for
+ a special shortcut of the void <replaceable>CATALOGFILE</replaceable>
+ specification (possibly expressed as &quot;&quot; in the shell
+ environment) appointing the default system catalog. That simplifies the
+ handling when its exact location is irrelevant but the respective built-in
