Somewhere between the last release and the present the ability to generate new semantic-action files was lost amid all the changes. This has been restored in the repository. Generation of new semantic-action files and of new_entries files can be turned off by setting newEntries to no in the configuration file. Generation of new semantic-action files is part of the ability of liblouisutdml to be its own development tool. It is essential to enabling it to handle new types of xml documents. John -- John J.
