adam@8 7 (* A pattern describes a set of XML subtrees, mapping each element of the set to
adam@8 8 * a data value. A value of type [pattern internal result] uses values of type
adam@8 9 * [internal] internally, but this API exposes no details of that usage. The
adam@8 10 * type [result] gives the type used in mappings of matched subtrees. *)
