Thank you very much Patrick, I have found this mailing list - https://listserv.brown.edu/archives/cgi-bin/wa?A0=TEI-L - and subscribed to it. I will post there. Anyway, here is my first attempt https://yuml.me/edit/d344ac2d. Amir On Tue, Aug 14, 2018 at 2:04 AM, Patrick McAllister < patrick.mcallister@oeaw.ac.at> wrote:

Hello.

I am looking for either a UML class diagram or an object relation diagram (ORD) of either:

1. The "Manuscript Description" http://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/MS.html

Or, at least, to:

2. "The Manuscript Identifier" section inside it http://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/MS.html#msid

Can anybody help here?

You could try to use the method for creating a graph described here:

https://williamjturkel.net/2013/09/16/simple-xml-parsing- and-graph-visualization-with-command-line-tools-in-linux/

This will work only for a concrete example XML document, however, and so there’s no guarantee that all combinations of the elements allowed or required will be visible in the diagram, I think. What you’re asking should properly be derived from the specification. Since the ODDs are XML documents, maybe one could adopt the method above?

You could consider posting this also to the general TEI mailing group since it doesn’t seem specific to Indic texts as such.

Best wishes,
