Can I have multiple layers of brackets with COMBO?

[Leonid Spektor]

Cindy,

	I am afraid I don't know why COMBO is just ignoring the second "+" part. It does that regardless of the order of those two part. I will have to debug COMBO to figure this out, but in a meantime you can just run COMBO twice like this:

combo +t%mor +t%gra +s"((*|this+*|that)^(v*+(adv*^v*)))" +d1 *.cha > total.cex
combo +t%mor +t%gra +s"((*|this+*|that)^(aux*+(adv*^aux*)))" +d1 *.cha >> total.cex

This will store output from both command lines into one file "total.cex".

Leonid.

I want the cases where "this" or "that" is followed by a verb or by an adverb and then a verb, and the cases where "this" or "that" is followed by an auxiliary or by an adverb and then an auxiliary. This command, however, only gives me the first half ("this" or "that" followed by a verb or by an adverb then by a verb) but not the second half.
