Example: <vRange> (value range)

These search results reproduce every example of the use of <vRange> in the Guidelines, including all localised and translated versions. In some cases, the examples have been drawn from discussion of other elements in the Guidelines and illustrating the use of <vRange> is not the main focus of the passage in question. In other cases, examples may be direct translations of each other, and hence identical from the perspective of their encoding.

    <p>This sample was first encoded by Gary F. Simons (Summer

           Revised April 8, 1993 to match the specification of FSDs
           in version P2 of the TEI Guidelines. Revised again December 2004 to
           be consistent with the feature structure representation standard
           jointly developed with ISO TC37/SC4.

    <p>This sample FSD does not describe a complete feature
