build commands

• build html all: build the dc code html by sequentially running all the follow commands:
  • build html merge_xml: resolve all xml references; turn into one single xml document
  • build html template_xml: repeatedly apply the xslt template to the single xml document to create the entire html site.
• build xml all: process the raw xml parsed from the Publisher, convert to something we can use to build the html. Sequentially runs all the following commands:
  • build xml insert_tables: insert hand-made tables into parsed xml.
  • build xml process_annotations: convert annotations into computer-readable structured data (wip)
  • build xml split_up: split the single xml document into a file for each title, and each section, with link between. The split-up code is placed in a ../dc-law-xml (a sibling to this directory)
