Firefox
Bookmarklet access
Keyword access
Another method in Firefox you can use is:
- Go to Bookmarks -> Organize Bookmarks -> New Bookmark
- Add a location such as http://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/ref-%s.html where "%s" indicates that this portion of the URL will be variable
- Add a name (e.g., TEI reference) and optionally description
- Add a keyword such as "tei" or even just "t" if you may use this frequently enough
- Hit OK.
Now you will be able to go to the location bar (where you type "http:..." etc. normally)--you might learn the keyboard shortcut (control-L) to be even faster) and do something like this:
tei valList
and after hitting return, you'll get brought to that reference page...
To import a predefined set of such shortcuts (to also jump to TEI Chapters, search this wiki, etc., see this file...
- go to Bookmarks -> Organize bookmarks
- On the window that appears, go to File -> Import
- Choose "From File"
- Find the attached file on your hard drive and click ok.
Then to use its contents,
- Go to the URL Location bar (control-L is a nice fast way)
- To go to a specific chapter, type teiN, where "N" is the chapter number. e.g., "tei7" or "teivi". The appendices are by lower case letter number, except for the probably most frequently used, A, B, and C ('m' for model classes, 'e' for elements, 'a' or attributes, respectively) and E ('b' for bibliography - done to avoid conflicting with 'e' for elements). For example, you'd type teie to go to the elements page. "teitoc" brings you to the Table of Contents. Don't forget to type a blank space after these.
- To search for specific content in the Guidelines, type "tgoo" then a space and then the content to search for. This will use Google to search at just the TEI site for the content you specify.
- To search at the wiki, 'teiw' followed by a space and the page title searches for a page by wiki title, while 'teiws' followed by a space and search terms searches for content at the wiki.
You can view the shortcuts by going to Bookmarks -> Organize Bookmarks . To edit their features, including optionally redefining the keyword shortcuts (but be sure not to use the same keyword used elsewhere), you can single-click an entry in the window that appears and click "Properties". (You can sort the list by keyword, etc. for a better view.)
