This shell maintains an active sentence within a sentence set. New sentences may be added or loaded. The current set of sentences may be saved and searched.

Through the options (set and <sid>:<opts>), one may switch:

• the annotation scheme: dep, passage, French TreeBank conll, dep conll, or raw
• the representation format:
  • xml (for passage and dep)
  • html (for passage),
  • graphical (for dep by default)
  • svg (for dep) to be displayed with firefox (default) or with zgrviewer (option zgr)
  • latex (for dep) -- require dot2tex
• the ambiguity: dis/nodis (for dep)
• parser options:
  • ctag/nolctag (use of left corner relation)
  • correct/nocorrect (correction mode when failure, on by default)
  • robust (partial parsing when failure, off by default)
• disamb options: with dis_options="<opts>"
• debug:
  • dyam (low level DyALog trace)
  • follow (item histogram, require follow_exec.pl)
• flow redirect:
  • o=<output> (save ouput in <output>)
  • o=+<output> (append ouput to <output>)
  • less or | (redirect to pager less)

frmg_shell may be used to examine the content of archives produced by dispatch.pl when processing (large) corpus.

frmg_shell may be used to process in batch mode (with option -batch) a set of commands provided in a file (-batch file) or on stdin (-batch -).
