Documentation

For instructions on installing the command-line version under Mac OS X, see Roma CLI Instructions [note that the locations of stylesheet and roma have moved to github and the links given are out of date, cf. [1]]. Besides this, just see the Debian packaging.

For the web version, see Customizing the TEI with Roma.

As Sebastian wrote on TEI-L on 2009-12-21, "Always remember when considering Roma and friends that the variation is in the XSL stylesheets which it uses. So 99% of error reports and bug fixes are to do with the behaviour of odd2odd.xsl and odd2relax.xsl (etc). The XSL package changes much more frequently than Roma."

Tech support

Report problems either at the TEI-L list or in the SourceForge bug tracker.

History of versions

https://sourceforge.net/projects/tei/files/Roma/

How to download or buy

There are three options.

a) Download the zip file

Sourceforge download – a shell utility (requires xsltproc, trang and perl)

b) Install the Debian package

Install the tei-roma Debian package from the list of Debian packages.

c) Get from Subversion

For many of those commands, you might need to run them as sudo.

  1. Download the source from Subversion: svn co https://tei.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/tei/trunk/ /path/to/local/directory/
  2. Install P5 (required in order to install Roma):
    1. Put roma2.sh into the right place (since P5 installation requires it): cp roma2.sh /usr/bin/roma2
    2. Install texlive-full (includes xelatex, which is required to install P5)
    3. cd /path/to/local/directory/P5/
    4. make install
  3. Install Roma:
    1. cd ../Roma/
    2. make install

Additional notes

Also see OxGarage and Vesta.

oXygen 13.1 onwards has all the Roma functionality built it. Load up your ODD, tell it to generate a schema.
