Esc +L and [mor- xb] Not Picking Up Errors

Hi Sophie,

	I don't understand what the problem is. Is it that FREQ command finds error code that you are not looking for or is it that data files have error codes that you consider illegal?

	CLAN does not check spelling of error codes. It assumes that if you have [* ...], then you want it to be an error code. It is up to transcriber to follow valid error codes convention and to use only valid error codes in transcripts.

This approach allows transcriber to create new error codes that are specific to their transcription and to not be limited by just few choice error codes. If you run command (freq +s"[\* *]"), similar to the one you have in your email, then you can catch any error codes that you do not want in your transcript.
