Usage of ConTeXt in Digital Humanities

Usage of ConTeXt in Digital Humanities

[Jan U. Hasecke]

I just stumpled upon this:
http://www.bbaw.de/en/telota/software/ediarum

"Print edition

With the help of ConTeXt a print edition is automatically generated as a
PDF from the TEI XML document. Each TEI element is given a specific
formatting command through a configuration file. In this way the
different apparatuses appear as footnotes that refer to the main text
with the help of line numbers and lemmata. The print edition can also
provide the suitable index for each transcription and solves any
occurring cross references between manuscripts."

Thanks for posting this. At some point, as the Arabic system matures, I  
may need this kind of workflow. Will study this example soon.

Best wishes
