=head1 NAME

Text::Tradition::Collation::Reading - represents a reading (usually a word) in a collation.
    
=head1 DESCRIPTION

Text::Tradition is a library for representation and analysis of collated
texts, particularly medieval ones.  A 'reading' refers to a unit of text,
usually a word, that appears in one or more witnesses (manuscripts) of the
tradition; the text of a given witness is composed of a set of readings in
a particular sequence

=head1 METHODS

=head2 new

Creates a new reading in the given collation with the given attributes. 
Options include:

=over 4

=item collation - The Text::Tradition::Collation object to which this reading belongs.  Required.

=item id - A unique identifier for this reading. Required.

=item text - The word or other text of the reading.

=item is_start - The reading is the starting point for the collation.

=item is_end - The reading is the ending point for the collation.

=item is_lacuna - The 'reading' represents a known gap in the text.

=item is_ph - A temporary placeholder for apparatus parsing purposes.  Do not use unless you know what you are doing.

=item rank - The sequence number of the reading. This should probably not be set manually.

=back

One of 'text', 'is_start', 'is_end', or 'is_lacuna' is required.

=head2 is_meta

A meta attribute (ha ha), which should be true if any of our 'special'
booleans are true.  Implies that the reading does not represent a bit 
of text found in a witness.
