Metapost: Re-tagging

Attention people who have been tagging things like "Gulliver's Travels Parts I-II" instead of just "Gulliver's Travels" like I've been correcting them to: you're right and I'm wrong. I wanted to avoid things like "Hobbes Part II omit 25, 26, 27 Part III 24" &c. in the tag cloud; but despite the existence of ways to get to a specific class period's postings with the current method (e.g. /-/labels/group 1/hobbes, &c.), I think it'll be expedient to do some re-tagging.


The end result will be such that the tags for Descartes will be:
meditations
discourse on method 1
discourse on method 2

So for Hume all group 1 entries will have "hume, enquiry concerning human understanding 1, group 1" and all group 2 entries will have "hume, enquiry concerning human understanding 2, group 2," &c.


So they'll still be tagged by author and by book, but now if the specific book (not author) is split up into more than one class, then each class will have a tag, e.g. above.


But you guys only ever to have to tag your posts with "group 1" or "group 2," since that's the only thing needed for the printer-friendly thing to work. I'll continue to maintain those tags which purpose is for finals preparation.


I may also start adding tags for author, depending on whether that's desired; I'll find out about that tomorrow.


If anyone is experiencing load-time issues, please let me know.
