How to change/add terms
The following code segment in my style file correctly changes the term 'accessed', but does nasty things to some (not all!) of the other terms like 'and', 'edition': they get truncated to the first letter ("u" instead of "und" for 'and'; "A" instead of "Aufl." for 'edition' ...)
<terms>
<locale xml:lang="de">
<term name="accessed">zugegriffen am</term>
</locale>
</terms>
Also, is it possible to add a missing term?
I'm in need of a term I call the 'here' term. It is used when you refer to a specific page (or page range) of an article and the reference is the full bibliographic entry (some styles for humanities handle it this way for the first occurrence):
Wandhoff, Haiko: “Auf dem Weg zu einer Universalgeschichte des Textes,” Zeitschrift für Germanistik 3 (1997), S. 599-606, hier S. 601.
The "hier" is needed to clarify that *here* you point to page 601, whereas the article as a whole runs from page 599 to 606 in the journal.
For my styles I have (for now) found no other solution than to "hard code" the missing "hier" literally into the corresponding macros of the style files.

For the "here" term, you might want to inquire on the XBib list.
