NAME

       malaga - natural-language word and sentence analysis

SYNOPSIS

       malaga [-morphology|-syntax] [-quoted] [-input input] project-file

DESCRIPTION

       Malaga  is  a  development  environment  for  natural-language grammars based on the Left-
       Associative Grammar formalism.  Malaga grammars can be used  for  automatic  morphological
       and/or syntactic analysis.

       The  program  malaga  is  Malaga's  user interface for analysing word forms and sentences,
       displaying the results and finding bugs in a grammar.

       malaga requires the name of a language-dependent project-file as a command-line argument.

       If no command line options are given, malaga starts in interactive mode, and you can enter
       commands.  If you are not sure about the name of a command, use the command help to get an
       overview of all malaga commands.

       If you want to quit malaga, enter the command quit.

       See info Malaga for details.

OPTIONS

       -h[elp]
              Print a help text about malaga's command line arguments and exit.

       -i[nput] input
              Analyse a single word or sentence given as command line  argument  (only  valid  in
              morphology or syntax mode).

       -m[orphology]
              Start  malaga  in  morphology  mode.   In this mode word forms are read in from the
              standard input stream and analysed (one word form per line).  The  analysis  result
              are written to the standard output stream.

       -q[uoted]
              The  input  lines  to  be  analysed  are quoted (only valid in morphology or syntax
              mode).

       -s[yntax]
              Start malaga in syntax mode.  In this mode sentences are read in from the  standard
              input  stream  and analysed (one sentence per line). The analysis result is written
              to the standard output stream.

       -v[ersion]
              Print malaga's version number and exit.
