This class needs:
- Documentation
- Work! Not all types of attlists are intelligently parsed, so we just
spew back out what we get in. This works, but it would be better if we
formatted the output ourselves.
AttlistDecls provide just enough support to allow namespace
declarations. If you need some sort of generalized support, or have an
interesting idea about how to map the hideous, terrible design of DTD AttlistDecls onto an intuitive Ruby interface, let
me know. I’m desperate for anything to make DTDs more palateable.

What is this? Got me.

Enumerable
Create an AttlistDecl, pulling the
information from a Source. Notice that this
isn’t very convenient; to create an AttlistDecl, you basically have to format it
yourself, and then have the initializer parse it. Sorry, but for the
forseeable future, DTD support in REXML is pretty weak on convenience. Have I
mentioned how much I hate DTDs?
Access the attlist attribute/value pairs.
value = attlist_decl[ attribute_name ]
Whether an attlist declaration includes the given attribute definition
if attlist_decl.include? "xmlns:foobar"
Itterate over the key/value pairs:
attlist_decl.each { |attribute_name, attribute_value| ... }
Write out exactly what we got in.
