Hi,

I successfully made my way through TEI Wizard and set
the tool to work, but it crashed. The problem seems to
be that it was creating recursive bak directories, e.g.

D:\LocalSaveWorkHere\TEIPublisher-do-not-delete\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak

D:\LocalSaveWorkHere\TEIPublisher-do-not-delete\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak

D:\LocalSaveWorkHere\TEIPublisher-do-not-delete\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak

D:\LocalSaveWorkHere\TEIPublisher-do-not-delete\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text

D:\LocalSaveWorkHere\TEIPublisher-do-not-delete\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak\text\TIMEA-TEI\bak

and so forth until space on my hard drive was exhausted.

I followed the instructions for placing the xml files &
DTD in the same directory. Did I make an error, or is
there a bug?

TEI Publisher looks cool--I'm eager to get it to work.

Thanks for the help!

    This happened to me too. I think it has to do with
    specifying the same directory for both input and output,
    since outpuc contains xml as well. TEIPUBLISHER should
    perhaps be programmed to read all docs in a folder before
    indexing, and then index only those docs, not anything added
    later. Of course, this would not deal with the prolem of
    reindexing later. I could not even delete the files, since
    the recursive is too deep for windows to delete, even in
    safe mode.
