[Wikisource-l] Unexpected result from a try to fix IA Upload failures

[Alex Brollo]

While trying to fix some failures of IA Upload an unexpected result
emerged: an easy opportunity of fixing some usual OCR errors into djvu text
layer.

In brief, the script xml2dsed.py
<https://it.wikisource.org/wiki/Progetto:Bot/Programmi_in_Python_per_i_bot/xml2dsed.py>
converts IA _djvu.xml files into a "dsed" (lisp-like) code, so that text
layer can be uploaded into djvu file into a much faster and controllable
way using djvused.exe. While parsing the xml tree, at WORD level any word
of the text layer is exposed to the script environment as pure text; this
offers a unique opportunity to fix many scannos, avoiding any risk to mess
the xml or the dsed code.

Here the first djvu file

where this has been successfully tested.
