I'm glad i asked because i discovered that XML parsing and quering ability
... and because you pointed to that search.
Now i can perform that search with a simple shell grep :
	grep -c "\s<PAGE\s[^>]*PAGEXPOS\s*=\s*\""  $file
Thank you !

That's also what i do : PHP and shell work.

Eg the scribus project manager is all shell :
https://github.com/JLuc/scribus-project-manager
As for now one has to declare each chapter's page count
so it computes the start of each chapter.
I now plan to embed a page count feature,
so it computes the startpage automaticaly
-- and in case a pagecount is declared, it would now check
that the declared page count fits the shell-found pagecount.
