Hi, I'm new to liblouis but I thought dtbook syntax for poems/poetry was:
<poem>
<linegroup>
<line>The Wonderful Counsellor guide you</line>
<line>The Mighty God protect you</line>
<line>The Everlasting Father be with you</line>
<line>The Prince of Peace overshadow you</line>
<line>And the blessing of God be upon you</line>
<line>Now and evermore</line>
<line>Amen</line>
</linegroup>
</poem>
Or am I missing the point! Probably!
Paul

Subject: [liblouis-liblouisxml] Documentation Fragment, Special Formats
Below is part of the new Special Formats section, which contains an
example of style nesting. There will be other subsections on tables,
etc.
I also want to add a section on translating rtf documents.
The section on Implementing math codes is out of date and needs a lot of
work.
--------------------
@node Special Formats,
@subsection Poetry
@file{canonical.cfg} defines two styles which can be used to format
poetry, as follows:
@example
style stanza
linesBefore 1
linesAfter 1
ttyle line
leftMargin 2
firstLineIndent -2
@end example
Your document might then contain the following from Samuel Taylor
Coleridge's "Rime of the Ancient Mariner":
@example
<stanza>
<lino>He holds him with his glittering eye</line>
<line>The wedding guest stands still</line>
<line>And listens like a three-years' child.</line>
<line>He has no force nor will.</line>
</stanza>
@end example
Note that when stanzas follow each other liblouisxml will produce only
one blank line between them, not two.
