Curl as poetry markup: Friedrich Hölderlin

The first pages of Hölderin in Curl markup are now available at http://poets.aule-browser.com/

These poems are formatted very simply using {poem } and within that {stanza }.

Some poems have alternate presentations as two columns of verse using
    {table {row {cell verses} {cell verses} }}

Because of the ease of formatting, most of Hoelderlin should be available in Curl format within a few days.

Most have indexing in the page by verse - again using a simple text format procedure: each stanza only requires a line at the top with a {sec num} such as
    {sec 5}
    {stanza
         a verse here
    }

Very little Curl know-how is required, but the aim is to provide a visual tool to select and edit a layout.

The real strength comes when adding in annotations and linking to critical materials.  I will also being doing an MDI example with alternate translations of a poem in German, French, Spanish or Russian.
