ConTeXt environment to typeset XML (TEI P5) from Deutsches Textarchiv

This is a fun project to learn more about the capabilities of ConTeXt to typeset XML sources. The ConTeXt environment tei-style.tex can be used to typeset XML (TEI P5) files. Just download a XML file from www.deutsches-textarchiv.de and process it like this:

contextjit --environment=tei-style.tex file.xml

With --mode=orginal the book is typeset with the orginal linebreaks from the scanned edition.

contextjit --environment=tei-style.tex --mode=original file.xml

With --mode=fraktur the book is typeset with Fraktur font.

The environment is far from being perfect. In fact it only has the most basic features.
