Per request from SK, there are now three output files being created:
The first one works slightly differently from the others. In the first one, each distinct gloss is listed, along with a list of all the prons from any entry that includes that gloss (in other words, multiple entries). In the other two, each entry is processed individually, and the glosses for that entry are listed following its pron.
Partly for encoders to do quicker and easier proofing (hopefully), but also partly to re-familiarize myself with some of the quirks of author-mode CSS in Oxygen.
SK asked for some stats on our progress, so that's now in the build process. More varieties of gloss lists are also going to be generated eventually.
This currently:
More will come, including hopefully a build of the PDF, but that will require some decisions about where our copy of XEP is to live.
SMK is entering new words from our August 2014 work session with EB and PCS. This prompted a discussion of how to make entry of new data more efficient.
MDH and SMK set up keyboard shortcuts for inserting new entry templates, using a new feature in Oxygen v. 17. See Dictionary Editing Manual for details.
MDH and SMK also looked briefly at Author View in Oxygen, which allows setup of a data entry "front end". This is not worth doing when SMK is the primary data-enterer and already comfortable with XML. But it might be worth considering for a future workstudy person.
For both "front-end" data entry, and importing data from a spreadsheet, the difficulty is that we don't know how many of each field each entry needs. An entry might have one or more narrow transcriptions, one or more cits, etc. In cases like this, MDH thinks it's just as quick to enter the data directly into XML.
EB has shared a list of new words not in previous NLP dictionaries. SMK will use it as a test case for working out the steps to import it and check it against the existing database.
Rewrote bits of the code so you can just plug in a morpheme id and get a fresh page and JSON for that item without overwriting anything else; tested and bugfixed with a bunch of other morphemes, committing the results to the repo in case ECH can use them.
After much pain, managed to get Tomcat 7 running on ECH's laptop with the Moses app inside it. Tomcat 8 will not run it; need to investigate that.
Meanwhile, we discussed visualizations and as a result I worked on generating data for a force-directed graph of the shared morphemes between elements all containing a specific morpheme. The example morpheme had 66 entries in addition to itself, and there 545 edges, so the result was painfully slow in the browser and not very revealing. However, it might be useful for less common morphemes.
Tweaked the autophonemicizer so that it applies only to phrs in cits, and then ran it on eight files ready to be done. After this was working and checked, wrote a new transformation which detects when a cit is actually a duplicate of a full entry which already exists elsewhere; comments out absolutely identical ones, and flags close ones for further checking. In this way over 1400 cits were commented out; 800+ await checking.
Quick last-minute review of IRG proposal.
Prompted by a discussion on TEI-L, added a Schematron rule to check NFC in text nodes, and ran my normalization code on a bunch of files which had non-NFC content.
