This page provides a guide to the features of the Open Shakespeare web interface.
The index page contains a list of all of the material on the system.
You can view works by clicking on the link available from the index page. If you know the 'id' of a text you can view it directly by visiting the url: /view?name={id} (you can work out id names by looking at the link urls on the index page).
You can view a given text in a different format by setting the format argument in the url query string like so: /view?name={id}&format={format_name} So to view hamlet with line numbers visit: /view?name=hamlet_gut&format=lineno Available formats are:
You can view mutiple texts at once by concatenating the name-ids separated by '+'. For example to see the Gutenberg folio and non-folio Othello side-by-side you would visit: /view?name=othello_gut_f+othello_gut
The concordance page provides a concordance of Shakespeare's work along with some associated statistics on word occurences.
