Questions with answers

1. Is there a User Guide?

   At present, no. There is:

   • The information in the README-tregex.txt, README-tsurgeon.txt, and README-gui.txt files
   • The information on patterns and programmatic use in the Javadocs. The TregexPattern and Tsurgeon class javadoc give relatively complete information on the pattern languages of these tools.
   • The GUI has help screens, available within the graphical interface by clicking on the Help buttons, which provide similar information on Tregex and Tsurgeon syntax.
   For tregex, you may also usefully consult user guides for tgrep and tgrep2, with which tregex is mainly compatible. Finally there are brief powerpoint tutorials for Tregex (by Galen Andrew) and Tsurgeon (by Marie-Catherine de Marneffe).
