tipitaka.critical: Lemmatized Critical Edition of the Pali Canon

A lemmatized critical edition of the complete Pali Canon (Tipitaka), the canonical scripture of Theravadin Buddhism. Based on a five-witness collation of the Pali Text Society (PTS) edition (via 'GRETIL'), 'SuttaCentral', the Vipassana Research Institute (VRI) Chattha Sangayana edition, the Buddha Jayanti Tipitaka (BJT), and the Thai Royal Edition. All text is lemmatized using the 'Digital Pali Dictionary', grouping inflected forms by dictionary headword. Covers all three pitakas (Sutta, Vinaya, Abhidhamma) with 5,777 individual text units. The companion package 'tipitaka' provides the original VRI edition data and Pali text tools. For background on the collation method, see Zigmond (2026) <https://github.com/dangerzig/tipitaka.critical>.
