applescript for OPML export

Hey folks,

I was asked, off-list, if I could go straight from OmniOutliner's XML  
to the LaTeX code that I needed. This sounded interesting, because it  
would allow me to write a plug-in for OmniOutliner which then could  
be a one-click wonder for anyone trying to do some somewhat  
complicated outline to LaTeX work.

Unfortunately, I'm an xslt neophyte who essentially took another  
person's xsl file (Landon Fuller), got an idea of how to alter it,  
and changed it extensively to accommodate some extras I needed. I  
haven't the least idea how to actually parse the raw contents.xml  
file which OmniOutliner produces.

So... I poked around in the contents of the OmniOutliner bundle to  
see if there was, perhaps, a plugin which translated to OPML. No  
luck. Is there any way that the folks at Omnigroup would let their OO  
to OPML xsl file be seen? This would allow me to have half a chance  
to force things directly to a (rather complicated) LaTeX document.

Thanks,

Bill Rising
