`TEI.elementNames` | file containing parameter entity declarations for all generic identifiers of the encoding scheme.

Note

The parameter entities in this file all take the same form as the two shown below:

     <!ENTITY % n.div0 'div0' >
     <!ENTITY % n.div1 'div1' >

Element and attribute-list declarations in the DTDs refer to the parameter entity n.div1, not directly to the generic identifier div1. As a result, the declarations will function as desired even if a new generic identifier is substituted (e.g. ``caput'' for ``div1'' and ``liber'' for ``div0'':

     <!ENTITY % n.div0 'liber' >
     <!ENTITY % n.div1 'caput' >

This allows generic identifiers to be renamed conveniently, to provide names in languages other than English, or to provide shorter names than those documented here. See further chapter 29 .
