# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

link-grammar: Link Grammar Parser (syntactic parser of English)
link-grammar:
link-grammar: The Link Grammar Parser is a syntactic parser of English, based
link-grammar: on link grammar, an original theory of English syntax. Given a 
link-grammar: sentence, the system assigns to it a syntactic structure, which 
link-grammar: consists of a set of labeled links connecting pairs of words. 
link-grammar: The parser also produces a "constituent" (Penn tree-bank style 
link-grammar: phrase tree) representation of a sentence (showing noun phrases,
link-grammar: verb phrases, etcetera).
