REFSDECL

   (i.e. references declaration)
  Description:  specifies how canonical references are constructed for
        this text.
  Attributes:
        doctype:  identifies the document type within which this reference
              declaration is used.
        Data type:  NAME
        Value:  must be the name of a document type
        Default value:  TEI.2
        This attribute is optional.
  Example:
             <refsDecl>
               <step gi=div1 att=n delim=":"
                     from="DESCENDANT (1 DIV1 N %1) CHILD (1 HEAD) STRING %2"
                     to  ="PARENT"
                     refunit="chapter" >
               <step length=4>
                     from="CHILD (ALL DIV2 N %3)"
                     refunit="section" >
             </refsDecl>
           This example is a formal representation for the referencing
        scheme described informally in the following example:
             <refsDecl>
               <p>References are made up by concatenating the value for
               the <att>n</att> attribute on each <gi>div1</gi> element,
               followed by a colon, followed by the first six characters
               of the first <gi>head</gi> element found within it and a
               space, followed by exactly four characters derived from the
               value of the <att>n</att> attribute on the next included
               <gi>div2</gi> element.
             </refsDecl>
