The "4026" near the top here is another example of a <note type="archival">
that seems like it should somehow display differently than the surrounding text: https://cdrhdev1.unl.edu/chesnutt/item/ccda.corr00184
This is actually a pretty complicated thing. I thought chesnutt wasn't going to use handshift the way that Whitman does, I still don't have a way to display it and won't by chesnutt launch. (I can display the tags marked by a certain hand just fine though)
So for the following example:
<opener>
<handShift new="#h01"/>
<address>
<addrLine><hi rend="smallCaps">CHAS. W. CHESNUTT,</hi></addrLine>
<addrLine><hi rend="smallCaps">ATTORNEY-AT-LAW,</hi></addrLine>
<addrLine><hi rend="smallCaps">1005 WILLIAMSON BUILDING,</hi></addrLine>
<addrLine><hi rend="smallCaps">CLEVELAND, O.</hi></addrLine>
</address>
<note place="right" hand="h03"><hi rend="underline">Miss Thorn</hi></note>
<dateline>
<handShift new="#h02"/><date when="1902-05-23">May 23, 1902</date>.
</dateline>
<address>
<addrLine>Booker T. Washington, Esq.,</addrLine>
<addrLine>Tuskegee Institute,</addrLine>
<addrLine>Tuskegee, Ala.</addrLine>
</address>
<salute>My dear Mr. Washington:—</salute>
</opener>
<p>My daughter Helen
I can style the <address>
or <addrLine>
elements differently, but there's nothing to grab onto to make them different from each other currently.
Cather Letters encoded the letterhead explicitly like this:
<fw type="letterhead" place="top">⬩W⬩S⬩C⬩</fw>
which makes it very easy to style the letterhead differently and show/hide it as needed.
We'll get the handshift eventually, I have it planned for Whitman work, but it won't be for a bit.
In order to make use of the small caps to differentiate the view a bit, I added this rule:
.SmallCaps,
.tei_hi_rend_smallCaps,
.tei_hi_rend_smallcaps {
text-transform: lowercase;
font-variant: small-caps;
}
note that once we have removed the all caps text in small caps tags, we should remove the text-transform:lowercase rule, see #198
I have changed the archival notes to gray text and monospace font
If there's an easy way to have hands display differently, that might be nice. For example, in this letter: https://cdrhdev1.unl.edu/chesnutt/item/ccda.corr00107. Maybe the letterhead at the top could be rendered one way, the note ("Miss Thorn") another way, and the body of the letter a different way...?
