---

This program takes an XML file containing an SVG or an RFC document.  It then compares all of the SVG elements with the schema defined in the document with [RFC 7996 bis](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-7996-bis). The program has the option of modifying and writing out a version of the input that passes the defined schema.


## Usage

`svgcheck` accepts a single XML document as input and optionally outputs a modified version of the document.

### Basic Usage

```sh
svgcheck [options] SOURCE
```
