Still trying to translate the catalog spec into readable language, but
apparently somebody else has been looking into this as well. Here is a link
to a thread on activestate's support forum

Hi Again,
I looked into this some more this morning and it looks promising. It looks
like the catalog file is just a mapping of the external URI references to
local ones to keep namespaces from clashing.
Here is an example that comes with komodo, it's in a directory with the
xul and xbl dtds
catalog.xml
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<catalog xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog"
prefer="public">
<public publicId="-//MOZILLA//DTD XBL V1.0//EN"
uri="xbl.dtd"/>
<system systemId="http://www.mozilla.org/xbl";
uri="xbl.dtd"/>
<uri name=" http://www.mozilla.org/xbl";
uri="xbl.dtd"/>
<public publicId="-//MOZILLA//DTD XUL V1.0//EN"
uri="xul.dtd "/>
<system systemId="
http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul";
uri="xul.dtd "/>
<uri name="
http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul";
uri="xul.dtd"/>
</catalog>
There is also a file called moz.soc, which I don't understand the purpose
of yet.
PUBLIC "-//MOZILLA//DTD XUL V1.0//EN"
"mozilla/xul.dtd"
SYSTEM " http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul";
"mozilla/xul.dtd"
PUBLIC "-//MOZILLA//DTD XBL V1.0 //EN"
"mozilla/xbl.dtd"
SYSTEM "http://www.mozilla.org/xbl";
"mozilla/xul.dtd"
But it seems like a similar top level file might enable autocompletion of
lzx as well (at least in Komodo and probably in some other editors). I'm not
sure whether the relaxng or dtd would be better to use, but I'll probably
try the dtd as I don't really understand rng. How meaningfull the
autocompletion will be, might be up for grabs though.
