 % \section{The Tricks of the Trade}
 % \label{sec:tricks-of-trade}
-%
+% As the |.tex| source file is compiled, \pkg{ekdosis} has to compute
+% a tremendous amount of data. Most of this work is performed by
+% \textsf{Lua} functions. An edition text narrowed down to a single
+% page needs to be compiled at least three times. On the first run,
+% the apparatus criticus does not show. Instead, \pkg{ekdosis}
+% produces an auxiliary file named \cs{jobname}|.ekd| in which all the
+% entries of the apparatus criticus are collected. Then, on the second
+% run a test is performed on this auxliary file to determine whether
+% there are entries\---and if so, which ones\---to be printed on the
+% current page. At the same time, references to the line numbers are
+% updated if necessary. Then, on the third run, the apparatus criticus
+% is printed.
+%
+% Of course, every change made to the input may similarly require
+% \hologo{LuaLaTeX} to be run three more times to get everything to
+% the right place with the right numbers.
+%
+% In some instances, notably when on a given page entries are very
+% abundant in number, specifically when the edition text is getting
+% close to the bottom of the page, \pkg{ekdosis} may oscillate
+% indefinitely between different sets of page decisions without being
+% able to settle down. The condition may be typically illustrated as
+% follows: after Lua\LaTeX\ has been run, an entry is attached to the
+% last line of the page. As said above, this entry does not show
+% yet. But when it does, if it results in an additional line being
+% printed in the apparatus criticus, the last line of the edition
+% text\---the one the entry was previously attached to\---goes to the
+% next page. As a result, this entry also moves to the next page with
+% the line it belongs to. This point is literally critical, because
+% unless a \cs{pagebreak} is inserted just here so as to keep the
+% contentious line on the next page, \pkg{ekdosis} enters a vicious
+% circle from which it cannot escape, not to mention that right
+% entries with right line numbers cannot come on pages that follow a
+% wrong page either.
+%
+% An alert reader may have guessed that inserting a \cs{pagebreak} is
+% a good way to get out of the vicious circle. And surely, if only a
+% few pages are at stake, this is the way to go. However,
+% \cs{pagebreak} commands should only be inserted when the whole
+% edition text is ready for any subtantial change in the preceding
+% pages may result in pages that break just after they begin.
+%
+% Another way\---should the edition text fall into the vicious circle
+% too often\---is to limit the number of entries per page that a given
+% layer of apparatus criticus may accept as described above
+% \vpageref{ref:maxentries}. As a result, \pkg{ekdosis} will take care
+% of inserting automatic breakpoints between pages whenever the number
+% of entries on a given page reaches the value set as |maxnumber|.
+%
+% |maxnumber| must not be too small: otherwise offensive to look at
+% vertical spaces may come between the edition text and the apparatus
+% criticus. Conversely, |maxnumber| must not be too big: otherwise,
+% should entries overflow on a given page, the edition text and the
+% apparatus criticus may clash. As said above, a couple of clashes can
+% be managed with a couple of manually inserted page breaks. But if
+% there are too many ot them, it is a good indication that the
+% selected value of |maxentries| is too to high.
+%
+% Complex edition texts do have a magic number. An advisable way to
+% figure it out would be to start from a sample of only a few pages,
+% selected as evidence for the complexity of the whole. As only a few
+% pages would need to be compiled, the magic number should emerge
+% quite rapidly.

+% Converting a \LaTeX\ document into \texttt{TEI xml} can be quite an
+% intricate business. In many cases, however, \LaTeX\ strings are
+% found within environments or groups that are easy to convert into
+% \texttt{TEI} equivalents: unless instructed otherwise, whether such
+% groups are delimited by opening and closing braces or by explicit
+% \cs{begin} \dots\ \cs{end} commands, \pkg{ekdosis} translates them
+% into |xml| so that for example \cs{emph}|{word}| and
+% \cs{begin}|{quote}| \meta{quoted words} \cs{end}|{quote}| become
+% |<emph>| \meta{word} |</emph>| and |<quote>| \meta{quoted words}
+% |</quote>| respectively.
+%
+% But \LaTeX\ does not place everything into groups or
+% environments. To take here but a few examples, sectional divisions
+% are marked in \LaTeX\ with \enquote{open} commands such as
+% \cs{chapter} or \cs{section} with no clear indication where the
+% closure of divisions occurs, contrary to \texttt{TEI xml} markup
+% with numered or un-numbered |<div>| elements allowed to nest
+% recursively. As regards running paragraphs of text, the situation is
+% even worse than in the latter case, as the following simple example
+% shows:---
+%
+% \iffalse
+%<*example>
+% \fi
+\begin{minted}{latex}
+\begin{document}

+  Opening words...
+  
+  ... Final words.
+\end{ekdosis}
+\end{document}
+\end{minted}
+% \iffalse
+%</example>
+% \fi
+%
+% Obviously, construing this \LaTeX\ source file into \texttt{TEI xml}
+% is a fairly complex task. For example, line~6 only closes a
+% paragraph for line~7 opens a division (hence |</p><div1>|), line~8
+% only opens a paragraph just after the heading of the section (hence
+% |</head><p>|) while line~14 both closes the foregoing paragraph and
+% opens a new one (hence |</p><p>|), contrary to line~16 which both
+% closes a paragraph and a sectional division (hence |</p></div1>|),
+% not to mention lines~20--1, where notwithstanding the absence of
+% blank line or any other indication,
+% |</p></div1></body></text></TEI>| is needed.
+%
+% \pkg{ekdosis} has been designed to implement this task through
+% \textsf{Lua} functions which involve string matching (both forward
+% and reverse matching) and recursions.
+%
+% \paragraph{The \texttt{xml:id} Attribute}
+% As a general rule, the |xml:id| global attribute must be unique for
+% the element that bears the attribute. Furthermore, it must begin
+% with a letter or an underscore and contain no characters other that
+% letters, digits, hyphens underscores and full stops. \pkg{ekdosis}
+% issues a warning when it finds that any \meta{unique id} of
+% \meta{unique label} expected in the first argument of
+% \cs{DeclareWitness}, \cs{DeclareHand} or \cs{DeclareScholar} is not
+% unique or breaks the rules just described, but does not prevent the
+% |.tex| source file from compiling. Instead, it prints the string
+% |<??>| in place of the expected formatted siglum so that the error
+% in the |.tex| source file can be easily spotted and corrected.
+%
+% \danger As the \meta{unique id} declared with \cs{DeclareShorthand}
+% is not to be exported in the \texttt{TEI xml} outputfile,
+% \pkg{ekdosis} checks neither its uniqueness nor its validness.
+%
+% \danger It must be noted that \LaTeX\ labels that are provided in
+% commands such as \cs{label}, \cs{cite} and the like must also be
+% unique in the document. As \LaTeX\ will issue warnings if it finds
+% duplicates, \cs{ekdosis} does not check their uniqueness but will
+% issue warnings if such labels contain invalid strings.
+%
+% \paragraph{\texttt{TEI xml} Export Settings}
+% \DescribeMacro{\SetTEIxmlExport} \cs{SetTEIxmlExport}\marg{csv list
+% of options} can be used in the preamble or at any point of the
+% document, except inside environments set to receive an apparatus
+% criticus, namely the \env{ekdosis} environment or any other similar
+% environment declared by means of \cs{DeclareApparatus}.\footnote{See
+% above \vref{sec:declaring-layers}.} At the time of writing, there is
+% only one option, as follows:---\\
+% \DescribeOption{autopar} |autopar|$=$\verb+true|false+
+% \hfill\tcboxverb{Default: true}\\
+% The algorithm described above applies for edition texts composed in
+% running paragraphs or in lines of poetry, but it may fail to produce
+% a valid \texttt{TEI xml} output with other arrangements, such as
+% performance texts or transcriptions of speech for which the
+% \texttt{TEI} Guidelines define specific rules.  |autopar=false|
+% instructs \pkg{ekdosis} to ignore blank lines in the |.tex| source
+% file as markers for paragraph boundaries. As a result, each
+% paragraph of the edition text must be found within an environment
+% associated with the \texttt{xml} |<p>| element, such as \env{ekdpar}
+% or any other environment declared as such by means of \cs{EnvtoTEI}
+% described below in \vref{sec:new-cmds-envs}. A typical use case of
+% |autopar=false| is provided below in
+% \vref{sec:specific-tei-modules}.
+%
+% \DescribeEnv{ekdpar} \cs{begin}|{ekdpar}| \dots\ \cs{end}|{ekdpar}|
+% is a simple environment that does nothing but insert \cs{par}
+% primitives. It can be used to instruct \pkg{ekdosis} to place
+% paragraphs within |<p>| elements when |autopar| has been set to
+% |false| by means of \cs{SetTEIxmlExport} described above.
+%
+% \subsection{Routine \LaTeX\ Commands and Environments}
+% \label{sec:routine-cmds}
+% The list of \LaTeX\ commands known by \pkg{ekdosis} at the time of
+% writing follows. To this list must be added the \LaTeX\ standard
+% commands that are used for sectional divisions as described above in
+% \vref{sec:latex-divs} and most of the commands provided by the
+% \pkg{arabluatex} and \pkg{icite}\footcite{icite} packages. Standard
+% citation commands are also supported as will be described below in
+% \vref{sec:citation-cmds}:---
+% 
+% \begin{xltabular}{0.825\linewidth}{XX}
+%     \toprule
+%     \LaTeX\ command & \texttt{TEI xml} element\\
+%     \midrule\endhead
+%     \cs{textsuperscript}|{}| & |<hi rend="sup"></hi>| \\
+%     \cs{textsubscript}|{}| & |<hi rend="sub"></hi>| \\

+%     \cs{textit}|{}| & |<hi rend="italic"></hi>| \\
+%     \cs{textsc}|{}| & |<hi rend="smallcaps"></hi>| \\

+%     \cs{pagebreak}\meta{\oarg{1-4}} & no output \\
+%     \cs{mbox}|{}| & no output \\
+%     \bottomrule
+% \end{xltabular}
+%
+% As for environments:---
+% 
+% \begin{xltabular}{0.825\linewidth}{XX}
+%     \toprule
+%     \LaTeX\ environment & \texttt{TEI xml} element\\
+%     \midrule\endhead
+%     |flushright| & |<p rend="align(right)"></p>| \\
+%     |flushleft| & |<p rend="align(left)"></p>| \\
+%     |center| & |<p rend="align(center)"></p>| \\
+%     |quotation| & |<quote></quote>| \\
+%     |quoting| & |<quote></quote>| \\
+%     |ekdpar| & |<p></p>| \\
+%     |ekdverse| & |<lg></lg>| \\
+%     |verse| & |<lg></lg>| \\
+%     \bottomrule
+% \end{xltabular}
+%
+% Regarding other, very frequently used commands or environments, some
+% do not need to be inserted in the translation tables: as already
+% said above, \pkg{ekdosis} converts by default the original names of
+% these into \texttt{xml} elements. For instance, \cs{emph}|{}| and
+% \cs{begin}|{quote}| \dots\ \cs{end}|{quote}| will result in
+% |<emph></emph>| and |<quote></quote>| respectively.
+%
+% For the same simple reason, if one wishes to have words within a
+% \texttt{TEI xml} element that does not have any \LaTeX\ equivalent,
+% all is needed is to define an inoperative \LaTeX\ command named
+% after the \texttt{TEI} element, like so:---
+%
+% \iffalse
+%<*example>
+% \fi
+\begin{minted}[linenos=false]{latex}
+% Preamble:
+\newcommand{\mentioned}[1]{#1}
+
+% Document:
+
+Our usage corresponds to the \mentioned{aggregate} of many
+mathematical writings and to the sense of \mentioned{class} found in
+older logical writings.
+\end{minted}
+% \iffalse
+%</example>
+% \fi
+%
+% \texttt{TEI xml} output:---
+%
+% \iffalse
+%<*example>
+% \fi
+\begin{minted}[linenos=false]{xml}
+<p>Our usage corresponds to the <mentioned>aggregate</mentioned> of
+many mathematical writings and to the sense of
+<mentioned>class</mentioned> found in older logical writings.</p>
+\end{minted}
+% \iffalse
+%</example>
+% \fi
+%
+% Of course, it is also possible to have the \enquote{mentioned} words
+% printed in a different font family:---
+%
+% \iffalse
+%<*example>
+% \fi
+\begin{minted}[linenos=false]{latex}
+\newcommand{\mentioned}[1]{\textsf{#1}}
+\end{minted}
+% \iffalse
+%</example>
+% \fi
+%
+% This command will print them in a sans serif font family, with the
+% exact same \texttt{TEI xml} output as above.
+%
+% \subsection{Processing New Commands or Environments}
+% \label{sec:new-cmds-envs}
+% The following three commands are provided to instruct \pkg{ekdosis}
+% how to convert unknown or unusual \hologo{(La)TeX} commands or
+% environments into \texttt{TEI xml} equivalents.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\TeXtoTEI} \cs{TeXtoTEI}\marg{csname}\marg{TEI
+% element}\oarg{TEI attribute(s)}\\
+% \cs{TeXtoTEI} takes two mandatory arguments and one optional
+% argument, namely: the control sequence name to be converted, the
+% \texttt{TEI} element it is to be converted into and any additional
+% \texttt{xml} attributes to be appended to the opening \texttt{TEI}
+% element. For example, the \cs{sidenote} command that is provided by
+% the \cs{sidenotes} package can be processed like so:---
+%
+% \iffalse
+%<*example>

+\begin{minted}[linenos=false]{latex}

+% \cs{EnvtoTEI}\meta{*}\marg{env name}\marg{TEI element}\oarg{TEI

+% \cs{EnvtoTEI} instructs \pkg{ekdosis} how to convert \LaTeX\
+% environments into \texttt{TEI xml} equivalents. It takes two
+% mandatory arguments and one optional argument, namely the name of
+% the \LaTeX\ environment to be converted, the \texttt{TEI} element it
+% is to be converted into and any additional attributes to be appended
+% to the \texttt{TEI} opening element. \cs{EnvtoTEI*} is restricted to
+% \texttt{TEI} elements that must never appear within |<p>| elements,
+% such as |<p>| itself, |<div>|, |<lg>| and the like. The following

+% Finally, this more flexible\---and more delicate to
+% handle\---command uses pattern matching to instruct \pkg{ekdosis}
+% how to convert \hologo{(La)TeX} commands into \texttt{TEI}
+% equivalents. In the first mandatory argument, strings to be captured
+% are marked in sequence with numbers prefixed by |#|, like so: |#1|,
+% |#2|, |#3| and so forth. Then, in the second mandatory argument, the
+% strings captured are inserted where each of them is expected in
+% the \texttt{TEI} element.
+%
+% \danger Strings must be entered exactly as \pkg{ekdosis} will find
+% them as the |.tex| source file is compiled. Specifically,
+% \emph{control sequences}, namely the coded commands immediately
+% preceded by `\verb+\+' are always found followed by a space. For
+% instance, |\emph{}| will be seen and processed by \pkg{ekdosis} as
+% \verb*|\emph {}|.
+%
+% The following example illustrates how \pkg{ekdosis} can be
+% instructed to process the
+% \cs{textcolor}\allowbreak\marg{color}\marg{text} command:---
+%

+% \subsection{References to Cited Works}
+% \label{sec:references-cited-works}
+% A full example of what is technically called a \emph{Conspectus
+% Siglorum} can be found above in \vref{sec:print-witnesses}. Such a
+% list of manuscript sigla should be found immediately before the
+% edition text. Traditionally, this section is followed by a list of
+% other sources used to establish the text, so that the edited text is
+% in the end established both from manuscript evidence (the
+% \enquote{witnesses}) and other works based on a scholarly approach
+% of the text (the \enquote{sources}) which are called in Latin
+% \emph{Editiones uel Studia}. As a consequence of this classification
+% as \enquote{witness} or \enquote{source}, the former must go within
+% the |<listWit>| element of the \texttt{TEI} header, whereas the
+% latter is to be found within the |<listBibl>| element.
+%
+% \DescribeMacro{\SetxmlBibResource}
+% \cs{SetxmlBibResource}\marg{basename} is a preamble-only command. If
+% a base name for a \texttt{TEI xml} compliant bibliographical
+% database be provided, \pkg{ekdosis} will use it and insert formatted
+% data in the back matter section of its own \texttt{TEI xml} output
+% file, as |<biblStruct>| elements within a |listBibl| section.
+%
+% As an example, the following Bib\hologo{(La)TeX} entry and its
+% \texttt{TEI} equivalent follow:\footnote{\label{fn:zotero}To the
+% author's knowledge, \textsf{Zotero} (\url{https://www.zotero.org})

+% \subsection{Citation Commands}
+% \label{sec:citation-cmds}
+% \pkg{ekdosis} can also convert into \texttt{TEI xml} references to
+% cited works. Depending on the optional arguments used in the
+% citation command, references will be converted into |<ptr>| or
+% |<ref>| elements with the appropriate ID supplied by means of the
+% |target| attribute.
+%
+% Of course, for this mechanism to work, Bib\TeX\ or Bib\LaTeX\ must
+% be used and connected to some |.bib| bibliographical database
+% file. Additionally, this |.bib| file must have been converted into a
+% \texttt{TEI xml} compliant file where all the Bib\hologo{(La)TeX}
+% entries that are used in the document are found within
+% |<biblStruct>| elements.\footnote{See above n.~\vref{fn:zotero} for
+% information on how to do this.} Finally, this |.xml| bibliographical
+% database must have been connected to the |.tex| source file by means
+% of \cs{SetxmlBibResource} described above in
+% \vref{sec:references-cited-works}.
+%
+% As an example, the following |sample.bib| file is used:---

+% \section{Future Work}
+% \label{sec:future-work}
+% A short, uncommented list of what is planned in the versions of
+% \pkg{ekdosis} to come follows:---
+% \begin{enumerate}
+% \item Very short-term (weeks):---
+%   \begin{enumerate}
+%   \item Editorial changes, for inserting corrections and
+%   conjectures.
+%   \item Text structure: milestone elements.
+%   \end{enumerate}
+% \item Short-term (months):---
+%   \begin{enumerate}
+%   \item Poetry: The standard \env{verse} environment is supported by
+%     the current version of \pkg{ekdosis}, in addition to
+%     \env{ekdverse} an example of which has been provided above
+%     \vpageref{ref:ekdverse-ex}. \env{ekdverse} will provide refined
+%     options, such as metrical analysis, stanzaic forms, \emph{\&c.}
+%     Arabic poetry through the environments and commands provided by
+%     the \pkg{arabluatex} package will also be supported.
+%   \item Correspondence and alignment, segmentation: The functions
+%     are being tested at the time of writing and will be included
+%     shortly in \pkg{ekdosis}.
+%   \end{enumerate}
+% \item Medium-term: Indexing, commands and environments for specific
+%   modules of the \texttt{TEI}.
+% \end{enumerate}
