But the <i>ad hoc</i> word substitution syntax is + abandoned: ordinary <tt>let</tt> (and <tt>where</tt>) expressions + can now be used instead. +<li> The resource may now be a treebank, not just a grammar. Parsing + is thus replaced by treebank lookup, which in most cases is faster. +</ol> +A minor novelty is that the <tt>--# -resource=FILE</tt> flag can now be +relative to <tt>GF_LIB_PATH</tt>, both for grammars and treebanks. +The flag <tt> --# -treebank=IDENT</tt> gives the language whose treebank +entries are used, in case of a multilingual treebank. + +<p> + 4/3 (AR) Added command <tt>use_treebank = ut</tt> for lookup in a treebank. This command can be used as a fast substitute for parsing, but also as a way to browse treebanks. |
