CHAT/CLAN help: add to %mor, missing items, %err line, post codes

[Katerina Tetzloff]

Thank you for your response!
-Regarding the first question, I must have had some sort of typo, because I 
am not getting any errors at the moment. I will try editing the v.cut, as 
you said this would be the best way to do that. I don't have a huge corpus, 
so it should be doable for the tokens I have. 
-I did, however, get an error when trying to code errors on the main tier. 
For example:
PAR*:     The fish [* s:r] caught the man [* s:r].
This gave me error messages until I replaced the error indication on the 
main tier to just [*] and specified the [* s:r] on the error tier. Should 
this work just on the main tier?

-I will put my postcodes back onto the main line! Thank you! However, how 
do I run commands searching for lines with a certain postcode? I was 
thinking 

Thank you!!
-Katerina
