\title{Accessors for name of XML document}
\description{
  These functions and methods allow us to query and set the 
  \dQuote{name} of an XML document. This is intended to be
  its URL or file name or a description of its origin if
  raw XML content provided as a string.
}
\usage{
docName(doc, ...)
}
\arguments{
  \item{doc}{the XML document object, of class
     \code{XMLInternalDocument} or \code{XMLDocument}.
  }
  \item{\dots}{additional methods for methods}
}
\value{
  A character string giving the name.
  If the document was created from text, this is \code{NA}
  (of class character).


  The assignment function returns the updated object,
  but the R assignment operation will return the value
  on the right of the assignment!
