22    The <literal>zeerex_explain</literal> Metaproxy filter 
23    answers valid Z30.50 explain requests, returning a
24    static ZeeReX Explain XML record from the config section. All other
25    packages are passed through. 
26   </para>
27   <para>
28    Multiple database elements defining the names of the accepted
29    databases are allowed in the configuration file. Each
30    of them must contain their own explain record. Notice that explain
31    records come in SRU and Z39.50 flavours, and this filter requires
32    the Z39.50 version. See the 
33    <ulink url="&url.zeerex.explain;">ZeeReX Explain</ulink>
34    standard pages and the 
35    <ulink url="&url.sru.explain;">SRU Explain</ulink> pages
36    for more information.
