CHAT/CLAN help: add to %mor, missing items, %err line, post codes

I am currently undertaking a project that requires automated language 
analysis and have chosen to use CLAN. I have consulted the CHAT and CLAN 
user manuals but am left with a few questions, hopefully some of you can 
answer.  

1)      -  Is there a way to add more detail to the %mor tier and run 
analyses on these things that are not mentioned in the CHAT manual? I am 
wanting to code argument structure of verbs. I tried adding an extra 
classification on my %mor tier like v|give-3S-PAST-ditransitive, but it 
gives me an error that it does not recognize that code. I am not sure how 
to edit the %mor file to adjust this, if it is even doable.


2)     - If I code missing items, like 0det for missing determiner, how can 
I run commands just involving these absent items?


3)     - Can I run commands on the error tier? I have coded semantic errors 
and would like to run an analysis on these if possible.


4)    - I also would like to use post codes (e.g., [+gram] is mentioned in 
the CHAT manual) at the end of lines, but the manual doesn’t say on which 
tier this code needs to be. I have been putting it on the annotation tier, 
which does not cause any errors, but I am unable to run commands based on 
the post-code. 


Thank you!
