These rules are defined by the corresponding SGML declaration. The SGML declaration
for XML contains
the following (among other things):
FEATURES
MINIMIZE
SHORTTAG
STARTTAG
NETENABL IMMEDNET
The last line (in it's context) permits the XML syntax of <elem ... />. One can hack
up his own
working variant of SGML declaration, containing this rule, for his tools to use. As
for DocBook
documents that are valid XML, you can use
jade -t xxx -d xxx xml.dcl your-doc.sgml
to process [your-doc.sgml] with XML declaration (which is in [xml.dcl] file in the
Jade distribution
package).
