MLU analyses questions

Hello,

I have a couple of questions regarding MLU analyses in CLAN (version d/l
from March 28), any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. I am running MLU analyses and I am trying to exclude words in the
morpheme count that are set up in a separate .cut file. I am using the -s
switch such as: -s at exclude.cut in the command, but it does not seem to be
working (when I use the same switch with the FREQ program, it does work). Is
there a certain way the file has to be set up to exclude words for MLU? The
"exclude.cut" file itself is located in the same working/library directory
as the files I'm trying to analyze.

2. Also, is there a difference between tagging words such as
jack+in+the+box, or jack_in_the_box for MLU? A short test sentence I ran did
not arrive with a different MLU count.

Thank you!
Janet Bang
