coding multiple successive non-speech utterances

[Leonid Spektor]

Lise,

You must have an older version of CLAN. Newer CLAN does not report error for the "*CHI:	&=squeals [x 9]." tier. Please make sure that you have the latest CLAN. If you still have problem, then please email to me directly the file that has the problem.
