Refer mentions of 'shortlong' at https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/csl-orig/issues/1639.

All shortlong references 'expanded'. For details.

the change_1, change_2 and change_3 files show the changes made to MW digitization.

Gone through the three change files, and here are my remarks in each of them --

change_1 (AB remarks).txt change_2 (AB remarks).txt change_3 (AB remarks).txt

It may be kept in mind that more often than not, the MW print has the long-short form, though it has been coded as <shortlong/> throughout the text (reason unknown!). But, while expanding these as separate elements, we should try to follow the sequence/order of the print as much as possible.

Andhrabharati commented 3 weeks ago

Just recalled that this was mentioned in one of my posts, while the revision was going on (last year).

And, there is another relevant post here.

I hesitated changing the <s> tag at these places [as suggested by Jim those days] to <s1> tag, as that would render them lose the italic style, as against the print.

funderburkjim commented 3 weeks ago

AB remarks processed. change_4b.

posts suggestions also implemented. change_5

More brief note re 4b and 5 in readme

funderburkjim commented 3 weeks ago

I think this can be closed.
