Abstract

Use of the braced keyword to encode bracing used to group together multiple lines (e.g. lines of poetry)

Discussion

The braced keyword indicates that the element in question has a curly brace associated with it. Elements for which this is frequently necessary are <lg type="tercet"> and <castGroup>. The keyword does not take an argument, just a set of empty parentheses:

<lg type="tercet" rend="braced()">

At present we have no way of indicating which way the brace faces, or which side of the element it is on.
