I'm making some notes on English grammar for some students and I want to analyze a few sentences using parse trees. Is there a way to do trees in ConTeXt? I guess I'd need to use Metapost. Any pointers would be appreciated.
Please let us know if you find anything. I was in a linguistics class and would have tackled this myself if there had been more time.
I don't think it would be too bad in MetaPost. I haven't quite gotten the hang of ConTeXt's MetaPost integration to the degree where I'd know how to make use of both their features in a practical way.
I found the following manual but haven't had a chance to try anything out. www.cis.upenn.edu/~dchiang/software/trees-manual.pdf Matt
