THIS TOOL IS DEPRECATED. The current replacement tool (as of July 2010) 
is the example-p5-xslt package. Use this package at your own risk.

What it is:

        XSLT for transformation of EpiDoc XML files (validated against the old
        deprecated P4 DTD) into HTML or text versions in Leiden. Includes 
        various XML files containing parameters and other options. 

License:

        These scripts are copyright Zaneta Au, Gabriel Bodard, Hugh Cayless
        and all other contributors. See LICENSE.txt for license details.

Technical requirements:

        These scripts are written in XSLT 1.0 and may be transformed using any
        XSLT processor. (Tested with Saxon(TM) 6.5.5.)

How to use it:

        XSLT may be run on an individual EpiDoc XML file, creating a single file output
        (e.g. via a command-line Saxon(TM) call or an Oxygen(TM) transformation scenario)
        or batch-run upon a large collection of files via some other process (e.g. an
        Oxygen project, set of batch files, etc.)

        Transformations are parameterised so that they may be used by different projects
        with only a change in local parameters, the scripts themselves being identical
        for all users. The parameters currently defined include:

        $leiden-style:
                values include 'panciera' (default), 'ddbdp', 'london',
                'edh-web' (and 'edh-itx', 'edh-names'). These change minor
                variations in local Leiden usage; brackets for corrected text,
                display of previously read text, illegible characters, etc.
        $meta-style:
                values are 'default' (displays only XML div content in HTML)
                and 'hgv' (extracts metadata from teiHeader and renders as
                expected by the HGV database)
        $verse-lines:
                values are 'off' (default), and 'on' (when a text of section of
                text is tagged using <lg> and <l> elements [instead of <ab>] then
                edition is formatted and numbered in verse lines rather than
                epigraphic lines)
        $edition-type:
                values are 'interpretive' (default) and 'diplomatic' (prints edition
                in uppercase, no restored, corrected, expanded characters, etc.)
        $apparatus-style:
                values are 'default' (generate apparatus from tei:div[@type='apparatus'])
                and 'ddbdp' (generate apparatus from tei:app, tei:subst, tei:choice,
                tei:hi etc. elements in the text.
        $line-increment:
                default value = 5, may be locally defined to any integer value
