My TEI publisher
Eric Lease Morgan describes a set of tools he uses to publish, index and distribute his writings, My TEI publisher. Pieces, or the whole, could be useful in other settings.
As a librarian, it is important for me to publish my things in standard formats complete with rich meta data. Additionally, I desire to create collections of documents that are easily readable, searchable, and browsable via the Web or print.In order to accomplish these goals I decided to write for myself a rudimentary TEI publishing system, and this text describes that system.
N.B. This is not a TEI/XML editor, rather a publishing system.
