Natalia,

Thanks for this information.

1.  "update the library" ... ok will put that on my agenda
2. "remove line" ... yes, i have done that in the pipeline: ... | sed "1d" ...

Alternative 2 works, but is not nice, so alternative 2 is a better choice in the long run.

Olle,

The command tool was not specifically written to be used with shell commands 
and it shows - there are extra formatting and output. I agree with you that 
extra output is inconvenient. Some of it can be easily changed, but, 
unfortunately, that particular string does not come from Xindice, but rather 
from one of the libraries (xmldb-api).

Now, your options are:
1. Update xmldb-api library. The most recent code for it had the extra line 
removed. The library is available on sourceforge [1], it has instructions for 
checking out the code.
2. Use some preprocessing in a shell script to remove extra content, for 
example:
bin/xindice lc -c /db | sed '\Dtrying to register databaseDd'

Using the commandline tool
   xml-xindice-1.1/bin/xindice
to fetch data and feed the standard output  into a pipeline of processing steps.

*Problem*:
- the first line that appears on stdout is "trying to register database".
- this is inconvenient ... much better to have only the actual content from the 
database

*Question*:
- is there some simple way to make that message go away?
- there is a "verbose" flag, but no "quiet" flag -- why not?
