These are the functions that so far have been identified as optional or enhancements to the core tasks of project, i.e. not necessarily to be included in the beta

  1. "See your words" button. On click, the list of words transcribed so far is shown. The user may click on a word in the list and see it highlighted on the subject.

  2. Motivational feedback. Penguin watch style: e.g. 'Great, you've transcribed 20 words! Do you want to continue or move on?'

  3. Pointer to different features in the subject. E.g. 'You've transcribed 5 words! Are there any unusual features on the subject?'. If yes, move to hypertext marking tool.

  4. Possible new spelling variant alert. VARD developers would be happy to work together on this. There is a Java API that could be used, but it still needs hosting (AWS?).

  5. Hide existing marks to facilitate the use of marking tool. E.g. hold shift key down while marking a word. This would be very helpful in very dense subjects.

  6. TEI markup we will use a small subset of TEI, but will try to keep the code spit out by keyboard buttons for brevigraphs etc the same as Dromio (Folger palaeography tool). See TEI schema: http://www.textcreationpartnership.org/docs/
