Multiple lemmas referring to the same verse

[piagentina]

Version

2.31.3

Description

I'm working on a text that employs biblical verses. I would like to avoid displaying multiple lemmas referring to the same verse and use a separator instead (as if the lemmas were from the same line)

Minimal Working Example

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[total={3in, 4in}]{geometry}
\usepackage[series={A},noresetlinenumannotation]{reledmac}
\Xarrangement[A]{paragraph}
\Xnoidenticallinenumannotation
\newcommand{\bv}[1]{\linenumannotation{#1}}
\makeatletter
\Xwraplinenumannotation{\@firstofone}
\renewcommand{\linenumrep}[1]{}
\makeatother
\firstlinenum{1}
\linenumincrement{1}

\begin{document}
    \beginnumbering
    \pstart
        \bv{6} Erat autem Ioannes indutus camelinis pilis, lateribus pelliceo cingulo cinctis, vescebaturque locustis et \edtext{melle silvestri}{\Afootnote{melle}}, \edtext{atque}{\Afootnote{et}} huiusmodi verbis publice docebat:\bv{7} “Venit quidam post me, adeo me praestantior, ut ego non sim dignus qui eius calceorum corrigiam pronus solvam.”
    \pend
    \endnumbering
\end{document}

I am not sur to undsertand what you would like to get as final output. Please show me an example

@piagentina I think all you need is \Xnumberonlyfirstinline[A]:

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[total={3in, 4in}]{geometry}
\usepackage[series={A},noresetlinenumannotation]{reledmac}
\Xarrangement[A]{paragraph}
\Xnoidenticallinenumannotation
\Xnumberonlyfirstinline[A]
\newcommand{\bv}[1]{\linenumannotation{#1}}
\makeatletter
\Xwraplinenumannotation{\@firstofone}
\renewcommand{\linenumrep}[1]{}
\makeatother
\firstlinenum{1}
\linenumincrement{1}

\begin{document}
    \beginnumbering
    \pstart
        \bv{6} Erat autem Ioannes indutus camelinis pilis, lateribus pelliceo cingulo cinctis, vescebaturque locustis et \edtext{melle silvestri}{\Afootnote{melle}}, \edtext{atque}{\Afootnote{et}} huiusmodi verbis publice docebat:\bv{7} “Venit quidam post me, adeo me praestantior, ut ego non sim dignus qui eius calceorum corrigiam pronus solvam.”
    \pend
    \endnumbering
\end{document}

Grazie Domenico, you nailed it! One last question: what if I want to use a separator between the two lemmas (I was thinking of a vertical slash: | ). Thank you in advance.

[Doc73]

I think there is a way to customize the separators between notes in different lines and those in the same line, but try searching the word separator inside doc.

I am not at all convinced by using Xnumberonlyfirstinline regarding the question asked by @piagentina. It work only because the two edtext, in this example, are in the same physical line. But, try, for example, with that

\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[total={3in, 4in}]{geometry}
\usepackage[series={A},noresetlinenumannotation]{reledmac}
\Xarrangement[A]{paragraph}
\Xnoidenticallinenumannotation
\Xnumberonlyfirstinline[A]
\newcommand{\bv}[1]{\linenumannotation{#1}}
\makeatletter
\Xwraplinenumannotation{\@firstofone}
\renewcommand{\linenumrep}[1]{}
\makeatother
\firstlinenum{1}
\linenumincrement{1}

\begin{document}
    \beginnumbering
    \pstart
  \bv{6} \edtext{Erat}{\Afootnote{A}} autem Ioannes indutus camelinis pilis, lateribus pelliceo cingulo cinctis, vescebaturque locustis et \edtext{melle silvestri}{\Afootnote{melle}}, \edtext{atque}{\Afootnote{et}} huiusmodi verbis publice docebat:\bv{7} “Venit quidam post me, adeo me praestantior, ut ego non sim dignus qui eius calceorum corrigiam pronus solvam.”
    \pend
    \endnumbering
\end{document}

It does not work. I should add something like Xnumberonlyfirstinlineannotation. SHould not be complicated. Maybe i would have time tomorrow.

[piagentina]

Thank you, Maïeul.

I have pushed on branch issue824 an implementation of \Xlinenumannotationonlyfirst \Xlinenumannotationonlyfirstintwo \Xsymlinenumannotation which are the equivalent of Xnumberonlyfirstinline and so one, but for line number annotation. See the file issue824.tex for an example. Please, test in a real use case, and make feedback.

I have also to implement for end critical note, but I am waiting your feedback.

[piagentina]

Can't find the file issue824.tex. Sorry, I am quite inexperienced.

[maieul]

to test new branch, please read https://github.com/maieul/ledmac#debug-and-feature-requests

the file issue824.tex is included in the branch

[piagentina]

First of all, a big thank you for your time. I've managed to test-drive the new commands and they work just fine with the exception of a couple of glitches: a) \Xsymlinenumannotation{|} produces an em-dash (—) in the output, while I wanted it to be a vertical bar (I've tried to input \lvert or \mid but to no avail. b) The separator looks closer to the right side than exactly between the two lemmas. You can see this by yourself if you replace \Xsymlinenumannotation{|} with \Xsymlinenumannotation{;}

[maieul]

1) that is because you use pdflatex Ot1 font encoding. As i always use xelatex, i didn't see that. Use \textbar instead of directly call |, or use $|$. See 2) between each paragraphed note, reledmac add a space which can be set with \Xafternote. And after line number + line number annotation, reledmac add a space which can be set with \Xafternumber. But the default value of these to space are not the same, because. So just add \Xafternote{1em} and \Xafternumber{1em} in your preamble at the will be set (1em, or what size you want).

[piagentina]

I discovered another glitch: if the verse is very long and runs across more than one page, the verse number does not appear in the apparatus on the new page(s).

[maieul]

I will add today the feature for endnote, then publish on CTAN. You should update your texlive/miktex installation in few day, and delete your local .sty file.

I have just pushed the new version into the ctan.
