post code [+ bch]?

[Leonid Spektor]

Yuriko,

	I can't replicate the problem you are describing. I am attaching a very small sample file that I used for testing called "mlu.cha". And here is its content:

*ROS:	alert [!] alert !  [+ bch]
%mor:	adj|alert n|alert !
*ROS:	yeah [= yes] .
%mor:	co|yeah .


When I run a default MLU command "mlu mlu.cha" on this sample file, then I get the following output reporting two utterances found:

MLU for Speaker: *ROS:
  MLU (xxx, yyy and www are EXCLUDED from the utterance and morpheme counts):
	Number of: utterances = 2, morphemes = 3
	Ratio of morphemes over utterances = 1.500
	Standard deviation = 0.500

When I run MLU command that excludes utterances with "[+ bch]" postcode 'mlu -s"[+ bch]" mlu.cha', then I get output reporting that only one utterance is found as expected:

MLU for Speaker: *ROS:
  MLU (xxx, yyy and www are EXCLUDED from the utterance and morpheme counts):
	Number of: utterances = 1, morphemes = 1
	Ratio of morphemes over utterances = 1.000
	Standard deviation = N/A

Please try this sample file on your machine with above commands. If they do work correctly, then please email directly to me your sample file that fails to exclude utterances with "[+ bch]" postcodes. If above commands do not work on attached sample file on your computer, then I would suggest that you first try quitting CLAN and restarting it again and try those commands again. If it still doesn't work, then try rebooting your computer and for the last resort try to get latest version of CLAN and installing it on your computer. If everything still fails, then please let me know what version of OS you have on your computer and which version of CLAN you are using, so that I could try to replicate the problem.


Leonid.
