Hi Peter,

  > Use a catalog?

I'm afraid this is a misunderstanding. My idea was that since psgml
has already consulted any catalogs and extracted the necessary
information (has resolved a public identifier to a system identifer,
for instance), it should be possible to share it. Besides, the idea is
to have a function that works "transparently", i.e. irrespective of
whether a catalog is used or not (although, of course, the usefulness
is more obvious to me when the instance specifies only public
identifiers).

Even more compelling, of course, would be something like
(sgml-modify-definition-of-element), but I'm doubtful whether
sgml-dtd-info contains information about which element definition is
made in which file. I'll see.

One might, of course, object that such functions lead to undisciplined
and chaotic DTD development. I'll see that as well.
