Dear colleagues,<br>
<br>
After consulting manual and trying various solutions I appeal to you ...<br>
<br>
1. I have successfully used chstring for <u>speaker</u> tier changes
many times. Can chstring be used on a dependent tier (i.e. to make changes
to a set of project-specific codes across a set of files)? I've tried
different versions of below w/o success (fooled around with spacing around
quotes, order, inclusion of +t*, etc etc.) .<br>
<br>
chstring +t%cfd +s"INITIATES:LEARN/INFORM:askinfo" "INI:LI:AI"
filename<br>
<br>
2. All lines in my transcripts have minimally a single coding tier while
others <u>additionally </u>have an error coding tier. Is there a way to
excerpt <u>only</u> the utterances with the two dependent tiers (e.g. first
utterance below but not the second). I've tried kwal and combo w. Boolean
search (^) but might be missing something.<br>
<br>
*DON: what your name ?<br>
%cfd: $INITIATES<br>
%err: $MOR<br>
*LEE: uh my name is Lee . <br>
%cfd: $RESPONDS<br>
<br>
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.<br>
