+DTD to XML Schema translator
+----------------------------
+Translate a Document Type Definition (XML 1.0 DTD) into an XML schema
+(REC-xmlschema-1-20010502). The translator can map meaningful
+DTD entities onto named and therefore reusable XML Schema constructs 
+such as <simpleType>, <attributeGroup> and <group>. The translator can map 
+DTD comments onto XML Schema <documentation> elements.
+
+Free available as Java class, Standalone application and as Web tool.

+
+ Only for Java Version <1.4 
+ --------------------------
+
+ For a successful re-compilation of the Java source code you have to tell 
+ the Java compiler where to find the Java archives "xml.jar" and "xt.jar"
+ (located in your dtd2xs\old directory). Set your classpath accordingly.
+
+If you want to use "dtd2xs.class", see applet wrapper "dtd2xs_applet.java" 
+or standalone application "dtd2xsd.java".
