-
-==What is GF==
-
-GF, Grammatical Framework, is a programming language for
-**multilingual grammar applications**. It is
-- a **special-purpose language for grammars**, like YACC, Bison, Happy, BNFC,
- but not restricted to programming languages
-- a **functional language**, like Haskell, Lisp, OCaml, Scheme, SML,
- but specialized to grammar writing
-- a **natural language processing framework**, like LKB, XLE, Regulus,
- but based on functional programming and type theory
-- a **categorial grammar formalism**, like ACG, CCG,
- but different and equipped with different tools
-- a **logical framework**, like Agda, Coq, Isabelle,
- but equipped with concrete syntax in addition to logic
-
-
-Don't worry if you don't know most of the references above - but if you do know at
-least one, it may help you to get a first idea of what GF is.
-
-
-==Applications==
-
-GF can be used for building
-- [text translators lib/resource/doc/resdemo.html]
-- [speech translators http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~bringert/gf/translatespeech.html]
-- [natural-language interfaces http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~hallgren/Alfa/Tutorial/GFplugin.html]
-- [multilingual web pages http://www.restauranggajden.se/tomas/]
-- [multilingual authoring systems http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~markus/gramlets/letter-applet.html]
-- [dialogue systems http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~bringert/xv/pizza/]
-- [language training systems http://csmisc14.cs.chalmers.se/~bjorn/langtrain.cgi]
-- [natural language resources lib/resource/doc/synopsis.html]
-
-
-==Availability==
-
-GF is **open-source**, licensed under [GPL LICENSE] (the program) and
-[LGPL lib/LICENSE] (the libraries). It
-is available for
-- Linux
-- Mac OS X
-- Windows
-- via compilation to JavaScript, almost any platform that has a web browser
-
-
-==Projects==
-
-GF was first created in 1998 at
-[Xerox Research Centre Europe http://www.xrce.xerox.com/],
-Grenoble, in the project
-Multilingual Document Authoring. At Xerox, it was used for prototypes including
-a restaurant phrase book,
-a database query system,
-a formalization of an alarm system instructions with translations to 5 languages, and
-an authoring system for medical drug descriptions.
-
-Later projects using GF and involving third parties include, in chronological order,
-- [GF-Alfa http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~hallgren/Alfa/Tutorial/GFplugin.html]:
- natural language interface to formal proofs
-- [Efficient http://efficient.citi.tudor.lu/index_noframe.html]:
- authoring tool for business models.
-- [GF-KeY http://www.key-project.org/]:
- authoring and translation of software specifications
-- [TALK http://www.talk-project.org]:
- multilingual and multimodal spoken dialogue systems
-- [WebALT http://webalt.math.helsinki.fi/]:
- multilingual generation of mathematical exercises (commercial project)
-- [SALDO http://spraakbanken.gu.se/sal/]:
- Swedish morphological dictionary based on rules developed for GF and
- [Functional Morphology http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~markus/FM/]
-
-
-Academically, GF has been used in four PhD theses and resulted in around
-fifty scientific publications (see [GF publication list doc/gf-bibliography.html]).
-
-
-==Programming in GF==
-
-GF is easy to learn by following the [tutorial doc/gf-tutorial.html].
-You can write your first translator in 15 minutes.
-
-GF has an interactive command interpreter, as well as a batch compiler.
-Grammars can be compiled to parser and translator code in many different
-formats. These components can then be embedded in applications written
-in other programming languages. The formats currently supported are:
-- Haskell
-- Java
-- JavaScript
-- Prolog
-- Speech recognition: HTK/ATK, Nuance, JSGF
-
-
-The GF programming language is high-level and advanced, featuring
-- static type checking
-- higher-order functions
-- dependent types
-- pattern matching with data constructors and regular expressions
-- module system with multiple inheritance and parametrized modules
-
-
-==Libraries==
-
-Libraries are at the heart of modern software engineering. In natural language
-applications, libraries are a way to cope with thousands of details involved in
-syntax, lexicon, and inflection. The
-[GF resource grammar library lib/resource/doc/synopsis.html] has
-support for an increasing number of languages, currently including
-+ Arabic (partial)
-+ Bulgarian
-+ Catalan (partial)
-+ Danish
-+ English
-+ Finnish
-+ French
-+ German
-+ Hindi/Urdu (fragments)
-+ [Interlingua http://www.interlingua.com/]
-+ Italian
-+ Norwegian bokm�l
-+ Russian
-+ Spanish
-+ Swedish
-+ Thai (fragments)
-
-
-Adding a language to the resource library takes 3 to 9
-months - contributions
-are welcome!
