+# Description
+
+This command line utility test if an file is valid standalone XML file,
+accepting undefined entities references. If an directory is informed,
+the test is applied in all .xml files in directory and sub directories.
+
+This tool also cares for directories marked with .xmlfragmentdir, so
+theses files are tested in relaxed semantics for XML fragments.       */
