<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>
The &xmllint; program parses one or more <acronym>XML</acronym> files,
specified on the command line as <replaceable>XML-FILE</replaceable>
(or the standard input if the filename provided

output, depending upon the options selected. It is useful for detecting
errors both in <acronym>XML</acronym> code and in
the <acronym>XML</acronym> parser itself.
