Exclude marked text when getting MATTR from MOR

[Leonid Spektor]

Amanda,

	The < > [% g] does not effect the creation of %mor tier. I would suggest you replace it with  < > [e]. This will prevent words surrounded by [e] from being placed on %mor tier and your FREQ MATTR command will work the way you want. Of course, this will create other problems for other analyses if words within [e] need to be analyzed by MLU or KIDEVAL or other commands. You might need to have two copies of your data. One for MATTR analyses and other data without [e] for other analyses.
