title: 'The ekdosis package – README file'
---
Overview
========
`ekdosis` is a LuaLaTeX package designed for multilingual critical
editions. It can be used to typeset texts and different layers of
critical notes in any direction accepted by LuaTeX. Texts can be
arranged in running paragraphs or on facing pages, in any number of
columns which in turn can be synchronized or not. In addition to
printed texts, `ekdosis` can convert `.tex` source files so as to
produce `TEI xml` compliant critical editions. Database-driven
encoding under LaTeX then allows extraction of texts entered segment
by segment according to various criteria: main edited text, variant
readings, translations or annotated borrowings between texts. It is
published under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL)
version 3.
Notice to the Gentle Reader
===========================
The current state of this documentation covers the basics of
`ekdosis`, namely what should be enough to start a new document and
see how it works. v1.0 with a full documentation should be out by the
end of July. Until then, there is a web page that can be accessed,
<http://www.robertalessi.net/ekdosis>, with a mailing list that one can
subscribe to and a section entitled “Literature” where one will find
some slides and a paper submitted to a journal.
