More precisely:

* Please use "Copy As Reference" (Shift+Cmd-C) in the referenced doc
(the thesaurus), then use "Paste Before" (Cmd-U), "Paste" (Cmd-V),
"Paste After" (Cmd-W) in the referencing doc (Evanthius_2.xml).

OR

* Register the referenced doc (the thesaurus) with the Include tool,
then use the Include tool from within the referencing doc
(Evanthius_2.xml). Note that you don't need to invoke "Copy As
Reference" if you use the Include tool. (The Include tool performs "Copy
As Reference/Paste" in one single step.)

You seem to have understood how it works. I don't see anything wrong in
the above description.

I suspect that the problem comes from the way XMLmind XML Editor has
been configured to support TEI.

For example, if the TEI configuration does not contain this declaration:

---
  <inclusionScheme name="XInclude">
    <class>com.xmlmind.xml.xinclude.XIncludeScheme</class>
  </inclusionScheme>
---

then "Copy As Reference/Paste" or the Include tool simply cannot work.

More info.:

* XMLmind XML Editor - Configuration and Deployment
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/index.html

* II. Reference, 7. Configuration elements, inclusionScheme
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/inclusionScheme.html

We do not provide a TEI configuration for XMLmind XML Editor. Please
understand that it's very difficult for us to provide some support for a
configuration we, XMLmind, didn't wrote. I suggest to contact the person
who wrote this configuration.
