The Text As Graph (TAG) data model is a directed property hypergraph for modeling text, markup (roughly comparable to XML elements), and annotations (roughly comparable to what XML attributes would be like if they could contain markup, including attributes on attributes).
- The
export-xmlnow has an option to choose a 'leading' layer. When a TAGML document has multiple layers,export-xmluses Trojan Horse Milestones on the layers. Previously it used these on all layers. In this version you can indicate a layer to define the XML hierarchy: markup in this leading layer will be output as regular XML open/close tags, for all other layers the Trojan Horse Milestones will be used. - When a view is active, changes to its definition file cannot be committed.
initnow also creates a sparql directory.
- export-xml (new option:
--leadinginglayer/-l)
New release: LSP-tagml 1.0.1 (May 2020)
LSP-tagml is a plugin for Sublime Text 3 that installs the tagml-language-server.
The tagml-language-server is an implementation of the Language Server Protocol for TAGML. When linked with a compatible editor, it can be used to provide syntax help in the editor.
- It is now possible, when a view other than the default view is active, to commit new and changed view definitions, and new tagml source files. Committing changes to tagml source files of existing documents is still only possible when the default view is active.
- Running
alexandria initin your home directory is not allowed and will fail with an error message. alexandria statuswill now only search one level deep in watched directories for files/directories that may be added.- When committing a view definition which is valid json, but does not contain at least one of the required fields
includeLayers,excludeLayers,includeMarkup,excludeMarkup, alexandria would silently accept this, producing an invalid view. This has been fixed: committing this view definition will not fail with an error message.
- query
- After a revert, the reverted file is now no longer shown as modified.
- It is now possible to run alexandria commands from any directory, provided one of its parent directories has been initialized.

- commit
- export-dot
- export-svg
- export-png
- export-xml
- The first markup is now always the root markup for the default layer, even if new layers are defined on that markup.
- This means that this first markup tag must correspond with the last closing markup tag, and suspending/resuming of this markup is not allowed.

Alexandria is a prototype implementation of TAG.
TAGML (Text-As-Graph Markup Language) is a syntax for the TAG model.
HyperCollate is a prototype collation engine that is able to handle intradocumentary variation (i.e. variation within one document), in addition to finding the differences between witnesses. This advanced form of collation is possible because HyperCollate looks not only at the text of a document, but also at its markup.
