Thanks for the reply, Mario. The biggest part I see is the possible "filtering", without destructing the > "writing flow". ...

A scene in this instance is an event in a location. One encounter between characters (or between a character and their thoughts). In many books, a single chapter will contain several scenes, often represented by an additional line break in the formatting. > > - Character-prominence-by-scene (point-of-view, present, referenced, > mentioned) > > I think, there is no computer algorithm, other than advanced AI > (artificial intelligence), to determine, if a character is "present", > "referenced" or "mentioned" by someone else. > I'm not expecting this to be automatically extracted.

I figure that with the right tagging and field definitions, these should be only mildly convoluted filter arguments.
