gestures coded without objects, and obtaining parser input

[Leonid Spektor]

Karin,

	The "chat2..." commands convert CHAT formatted data to format of the corresponding applications "Anvil", "Elan", "Praat", "EXMARaLDA" and "CA". CHAT2CONLL was not ported to Unix. It can be ported if people in charge at our end approve it, but I would suggest that you try that command in either MacOS or Windows OS version of CLAN to see if it creates the output that you really want before we spent time porting it to Unix. As far as I know, no one except us in house have ever used CHAT2CONLL command.

I have to ask you to clarify what do you mean by "text that is identical or similar to what CLAN's parser sees". CLAN has one parser MOR and it sees the CHAT formatted files, so they do not need to be converted to anything else. Perhaps I misunderstood your question and so I gave you the wrong suggestion to use CHAT2CONLL. Please, explain in more details what it is you are trying to achieve and what data format is your starting point. It would also help if you could give an example of what output format you want to get.


Leonid.

It removes all codes and more leaving as little as just a plain text lines. Second command is CHAT2CONLL. It creates output in format suited for either one of the following parsers: Depparse, MaltParser, TurboParser, AnCoraCorpus, Connexor, Clearparser.

If not, is there a CLAN program that I could modify to produce such output?  I am reasonably experienced with programming, and hopefully would know enough C++ to manage this.
