# xml-commedia

Storage for XML files used to represent Dante's *Divine Comedy*.

This repo was first created on my home server and was then transferred here.
It is now mirrored at my home server: `https://git.lhess.xyz:1534/lhess/xml-commedia-mirror.git`.

## Plaintext to XML with `canticle-to-xml.sh`
I used shell scripts to convert plaintext cantos to XML documents with the following format:
```xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<canto num="1" num_comm="1">
	<terzine>
		<terzina num="1">
			<word>Nel</word> <word>mezzo</word> <word>del</word> <word>cammin</word> ...
			<word>mi</word> <word>ritrovai</word> <word>per</word> <word>una</word> <word>selva</word> ...
			<word>che</word> ... <word>smarrita.</word>
		</terzina>
		...
		<terzina num="...">
			...
		</terzina>
	</terzine>
</canto>
```
