As of next week all of Ergo Linguistics Tools including the newest "Roswell
Teaches
English"  will change from free software to paid software.  Those of you
would like to
work with these tools for free should download them before October 15th.
You can
get to the site at http://www.ergo-ling.com.

These software products will be kept on the ergo server but will be
distributed and
advertised more widely and will no longer be offered for free.  We are
making this
last time free offer for researchers and students of NLP and theoretical
linguistics.

All programs are written in C++ have programmer SDK's available upon request
are Windows 95/98/NT compatible.


The programs include:

MemoMaster -- An add on for speech recognition products that significantly
increases
the navigation and control abilities of those products as well as adding more
sophisticated messaging and reminders and notes.

BracketDoctor -- A program for linguists which provides tree diagrams and
labelled
bracketings for sentences in the Penn Treebank II style.  Great for
students who
would like to include computer generated trees in their papers using this
standardized
framework.

ChatterBox -- A product that provides sophisticated question and answer
abilities
that are easily added to animations (e.g Microsoft Agents) and are useful for
educational and entertainment programs.

Roswell Teaches English  -- A stand alone product to help students of English
as a Second Language practice their English using natural language questions
and responses.  Includes a manual and textbook.
