It uses a different mechanism for identifying syllables than SYLCHK and SYLCOR. \item DELIM checks text to see that delimiters (characters like quote marks, brackets, braces, parentheses, and so on) are paired and properly nested. \end{itemize} REQUIRES = "RT-11 or TSX or MS-DOS or UNIX" @BOOK{OPAC10, AUTHOR = "Richard A.

AMPLE is oriented to the item and arrangement approach to the description of morphological phenomena. It can handle nonconcatenative phenomena only indirectly. AMPLE works together with STAMP (OPAC 15) for Computer Aided Dialect Adaptation. It can also be used in conjunction with ITF (OPAC 17) for publishing glossed texts in interlinear form.

WORDSURV is designed to aid the first of these areas---the collection and analysis of word lists. It functions in three main areas: (1) data entry and maintenance, (2) data analysis, and (3) data output. REQUIRES = "MS-DOS" @BOOK{OPAC14, EDITOR = "Priscilla M. Kew and Gary F.

Where the languages involved are closely related, it may be possible to propagate texts by adapting them from one language to another. This is an attractive approach if texts of comparable or better quality can be produced with less effort than by other means such as independent translation or authorship. STAMP is designed to adapt text in conjuction with AMPLE (OPAC 12). It provides the Transfer and Synthesis steps of the adaptation process. Output from STAMP is not ready for immediate publication, but must be checked and corrected by a competent speaker of the target language.
