Text Alignment Network version 2021 released

Text Alignment Network version 2021 has been released: textalign.net

Much has changed since the 2020 version of TAN. For a full list, see the change log. Some highlights:

• Conversion to XSLT 3.0
• Thorough reorganization of all digital resources
• Applications have been sorted into applications and utilities, and given names, versions, and other documentation. Applications and utilities have a single point of entry focused exclusively on documentation and parameters, to make them more user-friendly.
• New to applications: Tangram, to detect text reuse across two groups of texts. Optimized for classical Greek and Latin texts.
• The TAN function library has expanded to more than 250 public functions, including:
• Checksums (Fletcher, MD-5);
• Maps and arrays, including conversions to XML serialization, and deep operations;
• tan:chop-tree(), to cut a tree fragment into slices.
• Conversions across numerous numeric and data types (base-2 binary, bitwise binary, base64binary, octets, etc.)
• tan:diff() greatly augmented, now running about 40% more efficiently
• The TAN framework makes importing TAN utilities and applications and TAN Oxygen author tools easier.

New developments will be posted at the dev branch of the git repository.
