actually, if [ "$XSLTPROC" = "xsltproc" ] ;
then you can reduce that to

xsltproc $XSLT ./data/*.xml

For simple situations one might do without XSLT and stuff
XPath expressions for the content to grab into the command
line of utilities like xml_grep or xpath. But since these
are essentially shell interfaces to perl modules (XML::Xpath
and XML::Twig) it's probably not worth the effort installing
them if they are not already present in your environment.
