Two things:
1. The test attribute won't respond properly to '>';
you should use test="position() > 1". Fun, huh?
<<<<
Oddly, it seems to have no trouble with the '>' in that position. It works
both ways. I replaced the '>' though.

2. If you are looking to output literal whitespace, then use
the <xsl:text> element:
<xsl:template match="cmdsynopsis">
<xsl:if test="position() > 1">
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text></xsl:if>
</xsl:if>
<xsl-apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
That's carriage return and four space characters
inside the <xsl:text> element.
<<<<
Okay, I figured the second </xsl:if> was a typo, and it worked. Then I
discovered I didn't need the four spaces, the carriage return occurs inside
of the indent and keeps the indent. Funny thing: the carriage return
doesn't seem to work unless I have a carriage return *and* at least one
space in between the xsl:text tags. Is there anything special I need to do
to get the carriage return to work without any spaces?
Thanks.
