New page

== Summary ==
This is a XSLT script for adding a line number to each fifth line of poetry. Such numbering is standard in scholarly editions.

This is also one of my first exercises in writing XSL; it would be interesting to see how it could be improved.

Add any comments to the 'discussion' tab.

== Required Input ==

Any TEI XML file, preferably with "l" elements in it.

== Expected Output ==

Text only, but with line counts added in every fifth verse, enclosed in square brackets.
All lines are indented by one tab.

== Known Restrictions or Problems ==
Text only. Numbers lines consecutively, therefore it is not appropriate for collections of poems, or for poems with several cantos etc.
