   \Large \TeX\ and \LaTeX\ Macros for Linguistics
\end{center}

\vspace{1pc}

\noindent List last updated: April 20, 1994

\vspace{1pc}

The following list is really a ``work-in-progress''; it
can't claim to be exhaustive or complete, but is based on information
which has come to light as people have posted messages to the {\tt
ling-tex} mailing list.

The purpose of {\tt ling-tex} and of this partial listing of macros is
to identify material which is available, and also stimulate testing,
improvements to code and documentation, and so on, all with as much
cooperation and assistance from the original authors as possible. 

The material is all public domain, but the usual requests for citing
authorship, not changing the contents without changing the file name,
and so on also apply. These are the results of volunteers efforts, and
a desire to share those efforts with others; this should always be kept in
mind. Constructive criticism, helpful suggestions, or offers of revised
coding or wording are always welcome. 


\begin {enumerate}
   \item This list will be posted periodically to the {\tt ling-tex} mailing
list. To subscribe to the {\tt ling-tex} mailing list, send a message
containing: 

\begin {center}
{\em SUBSCRIBE Ling-TeX "Your Real Name in Quotes" } 
\end {center}

to LISTSERV@SHSU.edu.

    \item This list will be available from \ctan\ sites in the directory: 
 
\begin {center}
/tex-archive/linguistics/ling-mac.tex
\end {center}

See Section 2 for a list of \ctan\ sites.

As of this revision, I am not aware that the site is ready to receive
this list. So don't be surprised if you don't find the file there, or
if the {\it linguistics} directory doesn't exist at all.

\item I am about to relinquish maintenance of this file to some (at this point)
unnamed person, but for the time being, you can ...
\begin {enumerate}
   \item If you don't have access to ftp you can request a copy of this file 
by sending mail to sa2b@virginia.edu with subject line: 
{\em request: ling-mac.tex}.
   \item To submit an addition to this file, send mail to sa2b@virginia.edu.
Your addition will be forwarded to the file's new maintainer.
\end {enumerate}
\end {enumerate}

\begin{description}
   \item [avm-doc.tex, avm.sty:] %% \nl
         By Christopher Manning ({\tt manning@csli.stanford.edu}). 

         Macros for attribute-value matrices. Documentation available
         (but not printed in this collection).

         \csli: {\tt pub/TeXfiles}


   \item [cgloss4e.sty:] %% \nl
         This is a modified version of {\tt covingtn.sty} by Hap Kolb 
         and Craig Thiersch. 

         For glosses; as with {\tt covingtn.sty}, doesn't require 
         ampersands (\verb|&|) to align sets of glossed items.

         ``Following borrows from Covington's style files inspired by
           Midnight by M.\ de Groot, adapted to be used with {\tt
           gbt3.sty}: examples beginning with \verb|\ex| can contain
           glosses directly. Default is {\it Linguistic Inquiry\/}
           style with all lines in \verb|\rm|.''

         No documentation, but file is heavily commented.

         Posted to {\tt ling-tex}; not currently available on
         archives. 


   \item [chomsky.sty:] %% \nl
         Created by Michael Barr ({\tt barr@ ... }).

         No documentation; however, file is heavily annotated. Some
         draft documentation has been written by Ch.\ Thiele

         \ctan: {\tt tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/misc}


   \item [cjl-glosses.tex:] %% \nl
         Created by Michael Dunleavy, Carleton University; maintained
         by Ch.\ Thiele ({\tt cthiele@ccs.carleton.ca}).

         Macros for glosses (seems to work in both plain \TeX\ and in
         \LaTeX). Variants for centred, flush right or left glosses,
         and others. Some documentation; needs testing before it 
         can be put out on the archives.

         Posted to {\tt ling-tex} list; not currently available on
         archives. 
 

   \item [cm-lingmacros.sty:] %% \nl
         Modified version of Emma Pease's {\tt lingmacros.sty}, by
         Christopher Manning and Avery Andrews ({\tt
         Avery.Andrews@anu.edu.au}).

         \csli: {\tt pub/TeXfiles}


   \item [covingtn.tex, covingtn.sty:] %% \nl
         Created by Michael Covington. 

         \LaTeX\ macros for numbered examples, glosses, phrase
         structure rules, feature structures, discourse representation
         structures, exercises, reference lists, and miscellany. 
         Documentation. 
     
         \ctan: {\tt tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/covington}


   \item [French Style Files:] %% \n
         Bernard Gaulle ({\tt gaulle@idris.fr}).

         French based style files offering a easy to use multi-lingual 
         scheme to work with other languages (English and German are
         currently offered.) French patterns are up to date and there 
	 are a lot of test files. This package also offer a way to change 
         your keyboard ``on the fly'' and to set your default at initex 
         time, i.e. when creating your format. Two versions are 
         released per year.

	 ftp.univ-rennes1.fr: {\tt pub/GUTenberg/french}


   \item [glex.sty:] %% \nl
         Created by Rob Norris; notes from Chet Creider.

         \LaTeX\ macros for numbered glosses. All three lines of a
         gloss are input; by contrast, {\tt cjl-glosses.tex} only
         takes care of the first 2 lines, requiring the 3rd line, the
         translation, to be formatted independently. On the other
         hand, {\tt glex.sty} works with tabs, while {\tt
         cjl-glosses.tex} groups each set of word-1 over gloss-1
         within braces.

         [Availability not yet determined.]


   \item [gloss.tex, gloss.doc:] %% \nl
         Part of the Midnight Macros set by Marcel van der Goot\nl ({\tt
         marcel@cs.caltech.edu}).
 
         Macros for vertically aligning words in consecutive
         sentences. Documentation.

         \ctan: {\tt tex-archive/macros/macros/generic/midnight}


   \item [lingmacros.sty:] %% \nl
         By Emma Pease, CSLI, Stanford.

         Macros for numbered examples, trees, AVM structures.

         \csli: {\tt pub/TeXfiles}

   
   \item [lsalike.sty, lsalike.bst:] %% \nl
         Daniel S. Jurafsky, UC Berkeley.

         ``{\em lsalike} style file for bibtex.
           It implements a bibliography format which
           is very close to the LSA style sheet and
           resembles the journal Language.
           Among its advantages are that it does the lovely
           dashed-lines-for-repeated-bib-entries that
           makes Language bibliographies so easy to read,
           and it also makes citations of the form Chomsky (1965:134)
           very easy.''
 
         ftp.icsi.berkeley.edu: {\tt pub/ai/jurafsky}
 
   \item [numquote.doc, numquote.tex, enum.sty:] %% \nl
         Bob Mercer, U.\ of Western Ontario.

         \LaTeX\ macros for automatic numbering of examples.
         Documentation.

         Posted to {\tt ling-tex} list; not currently available on
         archives. 


   \item [pstrees:] %% \nl
         From Avery Andrews; requires Emma Pease's {\tt tree-dvips}
         package.

         ``This package consists of a preprocessor and some
           macro-definitions, by which linguistics-style trees can be
           specified as convenient indented lists, with spacing and
           line-drawing done automatically.''

         \csli: {\tt pub/TeXfiles} (a tar file)

         [Note: {\tt pstrees} contains files which do {\em not} include
          the prefix ``pstrees''; rather, the main files are
          ``trees.**'', which may cause confusion if one is not
          careful -- Ch.]
  

   \item [pstricks:] 
         Created by Timothy Van Zandt ({\tt tvz@Princeton.EDU}).

         This is an extensive collection of PostScript macros that
         is compatible with most \TeX macro packages, including
         Plain \TeX, \LaTeX, \AmSTeX\ and \AmS-LaTeX. Included are
         macros for color, graphics, rotation, trees and overlays.
         ``PSTricks puts the icing (PostScript) on your cake (\TeX)!'' 
         Documentation.

         \ctan: {\tt tex-archive/graphics/pstricks} 


  \item [qtree:] Alexis Dimitriadis ({\tt alexis@babel.ling.upenn.edu}).

        Qtree consists of tree macros written by Jeff Siskind and a front
        end by Alexis Dimitriadis.  These macros allow a tree to be
        specified in bracketed notation rather than as a series of \LaTeX\
        directives, and take into account the size of the node labels when
        designing the tree; it is usually only necessary to specify the
        tree topology to obtain beautiful trees.  The node labels
        themselves can be arbitrarily complicated. Documentation is
        included in the distribution file.

        ai.uga.edu: {\tt /pub/tex/qtree.shar}

   \item [tree-dvips:] %% \nl
         Created by Emma Pease ({\tt emma@csli.stanford.edu}).

         \csli\ PostScript drawing macros. These macros were originally
         created to draw the lines between nodes in the trees created
         by the tree macros in {\tt lingmacros.sty}. They will only
         work with dvips version 541 or later (by Tomas Rokicki
         available on {\tt labrea.stanford.edu}) but can be easily
         modified to be used with earlier versions of dvips and
         slightly less easily modified for other dvi to PostScript
         convertors. Documentation. [Formerly known as {\tt tree.tex}.]

         \csli: {\tt pub/TeXfiles} (a tar file)


   \item [treetex]
         Created by Anne Brueggemann-Klein and Derick Wood. 

         Extensive tree-drawing macro set. Documentation available.
         See also: A.\ Brueggeman-Klein and Derick Wood (1989)
         ``Drawing trees nicely with \TeX,'' {\sl Electronic
         Publishing} 2.2.101--115. 

         [Availability unknown.]

   \item [voorbeeldom.sty:] 
         Created by Werenfried Spit ({\tt spit@vm.ci.uv.es}, {\tt
         spit@ific.uv.es}).

         \LaTeX\ document-style option which defines an enumerate-like
         environment for typesetting linguistic examples. No
         documentation, but {\tt.sty} file has commented examples.

\section{What's available where}

\begin {itemize}
\item Most \TeX-ware is available via ``anonymous'' ftp from the \ctan\  
 (Comprehensive \TeX\ Archive Network) sites,
in the directory /tex-archive.

\vspace{1pc}

\ctan\ sites:

\begin{center}
   \begin{tabular}{lll}

\noindent The \ctan\ holdings are too
numerous to list here. Get the {\em README} files from the /tex-archive
directory for more information. 

\item In
addition to \ctan\, there has been a long-standing ftp site at
Stanford:

\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{lll}
     csli.stanford.edu     & 36.9.0.46  & /pub/TeXfiles
\end{tabular}
\end{center}

\noindent The Index for the directory (as of January 18, 1994), 
shows the following:

               anatsci.bst}) 

         \item letters a, b, \ldots\ are added to the year for multiple
               entries in label and reference list

         \item A shortcite also exists (year only) (adapted from
