This threaed gets me thinking: how far away from "proper" is the tipa package under LaTeX? How much work is a "proper" implementation likely to be?
this is something you and steve peter (also a linguist) can tell us
I'm actually not certain what's being asked. By being a "proper" package under LaTeX, do you mean that the package conforms to all norms for LaTeX package programming?
That "proper" remark was made by me. What I meant was: TIPA is fine for phonetics, but it is *only* phonetics. For full support for typesetting in the field of linguistics, many more specialized macros are needed, that are not handled by the TIPA package (like glosses and trees in various styles). Cheers, Taco
