Description

For some works, the section descriptors represent line numbers (e.g. Eumenides by Aeschylus). In Perseus, Aesch. Eum. 131 maps to "lines 131-142".

The XML indicates that steps ought to be used in the header:

<refsDecl doctype="TEI.2">
    <step refunit="line" from="DESCENDANT (1 L N%1)"/>
</refsDecl>

Below is a snippet of corresponding content:

<text lang="greek">
<body>
<div1 type="episode">
<milestone ed="p" n="1" unit="card"/>
<sp n="*puqia/s">
<speaker>*puqia/s</speaker>

The "card" milestones are the ones that should be listed as a range.

#2 Updated by Luke Murphey about 12 years ago

I think the best solution is to have a flag which indicates whether the "l" tags and use these as line numbers.

#3 Updated by Luke Murphey about 12 years ago

Here are the options:

  1. Have chapter divider count the number of <l> elements and update the name accordingly
  2. Have chapter divider use the next division name and use it to assign the name accordingly (doesn't work on the last line)
  3. Have version divider count lines and set the name accordingly
  4. Have a function run afterwards that assigns the names accordingly
