Merging transcripts

[Nan Bernstein Ratner]

Dear all, I saw the question as HOW to combine transcripts, although Brian
makes a very good point (and we are increasingly finding influences of
activity on many language measures). I would say that the simplest thing to
do to combine things for KidEval is just to cut and paste the content of
one transcript into the other. This only works if you do not need the two
audios for measures that are dependent on the linked audio. If you need the
audio to reference values, you will also need to combine the audios.
