semantically oriented character level elements
Element
use for
example
<tt>
Use for any technical term. The type of that term is determined by the attribute [type] .
This element could be treated as a back-door to markup information which is not totally semantic. The SGML processing system can generate list of technical terms which makes it easier to find misspellings and other errors.
This is an SGML tag <tt type=sgmltag>
we can collect all <tt>s
<xref>
Used to create links in the document. The role of the target is determined by the attribute [id-class] receiving the value of the target's fixed attribute [f-id-class]. The attributes of <xref> should be maintained by the authoring system.
 
<xdoc>
Used to refer to an external document which usually is not available electronically. <xdoc> receives a set of elements characterizing the external document
Details to architectural forms can be found in .
<ft>
Is used to create footnotes
Footnotes seem to be small and unimportant.
<ie>
creates index entries
It is not necessary to put SGML tags into the Index, since the processing for MSRREP.DTD recommends to create a list of SGML tags automatically.
<xfile>
Is used to create pointers to external files which are not to be processed by the native SGML processing system. The contents of <xfile> can be used to connect to appropriate systems in later steps of the processing chain.

<std>
Is used to refer to a standard.
SGML is defined in [Information Processing - Text and Office Information Systems;ISO 8879;Standard Generalized Markup Language;standard;1986;;entire document;]

usage of technical terms
type
use for
example
<tt type=sgmltag>
Used to describe SGML tags including attributes
To describe SGML tags use <tt type=sgmltag>.
<tt type=sgml-attribute>
Used to describe SGML attributes outside of tags
The sgmltag is denoted by the attribute [type]
<tt type=tool>
Used to mention tools used for example in a process. This can be software, as well as mechanical tools. The tool should be specified by its nature not by the specific product name.
SGML files are processed using an SGML processing system.
<tt type=product>
Used to mention specific products.
This document is processed using MetaMorphosis.
<tt type=variable>
Used to mention a variable informally. This is used to control the rendition as well as for generating variable lists. This is mainly for informal reports. It is also possible to use this to mention a variable in the ECU software if no <sw-data-dictionary> is part of the document. In a later process step, this can be turned over to a formal <xref>
The initialization is controlled by the environment variable MMRC.
The initial advanced angle is calculated based on NandTL.
<tt type=state>
Used to mention a state for example of a process.
The documents must at least be revised if they are submitted to the customer.
<tt type=prm>
Used to mention a state for example of a process. It is also possible to use this to mention a calibration parameter in the ECU software if no <sw-data-dictionary> is part of the document. In a later process step, this can be turned over to a formal <xref>
The initial advanced angle is calculated using a lookup table KFZW.
<tt type=material>
Used to mention material.
Furniture is usually made of wood and plastic
<tt type=control-element>
Used to mention control elements of tools like push-buttons, menu items, switches etc. as well as keyboard keys.
To finish the dialog push the OK button.
<tt type=code>
Used to markup program in line code sequences
MetaMorphosis is invoked with mm crp.sgm
<tt type=organisation>
Used to markup the name of an organization.
SGML is standardized by ISO
<tt type=other>
Used to mention a special term which does not fit to the other types. This is a back-door for the definition of user defined types. They have to be specified within the attribute [user-defined-type]. A formatter uses this user defined type only if [type=other].
This is a thing not covered by <tt>.
