MOR analysis not recognizing singular letters in CHAT

[Leonid Spektor]

Lauren,

	You can run "chstring +b +cletters.cut *.cha" command on your data files. The "letters.cut" file is attached below. This command will add @l to all single letters. For example, "b" will become "b at l". After you are happy with result you can either run the same CHSTRING command with +1 option or run command "ren -f *.chstr.cex *.cha" on CHSTRING output files. You might also look at "letters.cut" file to see if it needs to be tweaked more for your case.

When running the MOR analysis on those transcripts, letters on their own are not recognized as nouns like they would be with @l.  We have hundreds of transcripts that omit the coding. Is there an easier solution than going back and changing them all?  Thank you so much!
