## DESCRIPTION

*xslt-config* is a tool that is used to determine the compile and linker flags that should be used to compile and link programs that use *libxslt*.

## OPTIONS

*xslt-config* accepts the following options:

- **--version**

  Print the currently installed version of *libxslt* on the standard output.

- **--libs**

  Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a *libxslt* program.
