WP2 Grammar developer’s tools - M18

Highlights

The period M13-M18 has been very active in the development of grammar development tools and also in their documentation and dissemination. Thus we can report the following new software:

• The GF Grammar Web IDE was released in http://www.grammaticalframework.org/demos/gfse/ and has undergone a few upgrades. It is one of the two systems to be reported in D2.2.
• The GF Shell Reference http://www.grammaticalframework.org/doc/gf-shell-reference.html was published and will be upgraded semi-automatically whenever new functionalities appear.
• The GF Resource Grammar Library got three new complete languages: Punjabi, Nepali, and Persian. Partial implementations of Latvian and Swahili were published.
• The Eclipse plug-in to GF was started and is operational with basic functionality, as reported in D2.2.
• The example-based grammar writing feature is available as a shell program and also in the Web IDE, as reported in D2.2.

Ongoing work

We are working with further development of the two IDE's for GF and the example-based grammar writing method. We are also gathering material for Deliverable D2.3, Best Practices, due M24.
