Some are very simple, for example, "A otherwise B" selects A if it exists, otherwise it selects B. Some are more complex and powerful, such as the saxon:update and saxon:deep-update instructions in XSLT. Please try them out and give us feedback.<o:p></o:p></span></pre>

<pre style="margin-left:8.4pt"><span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Internally, there's a set of classes for handling Unicode strings. The main motivation for this was to allow common code across Java and C#, but it also improves speed and reduces memory requirements for many string handling operations. The effect is not uniform however; for very simple transformations of documents consisting exclusively of ASCII text, there is generally a memory saving but a small overhead in processing time.<o:p></o:p></span></pre>
