ok, but I may not be able to look at it immediately
packing - yes I thought about that - see note in parse.lsp - but wanted to get
it working first. Obviously that's one reason for moving to a chart all the
way through.
I discovered one problem with the code last night, which I'll check in a fix
for when I get a chance. This was potentially preventing some valid
analyses of a string in the situation where one rule was fed by some rules and
another rule associated with the same affix was fed by others.
I am trying to merge in irregulars which is complicated by the need to allow
irregulars where the derived form is equal to the stem. My current feeling is
that this should only be allowed in irregulars - if there's a regular pattern
where there's no affixation, this has to be allowed for by a lexical rule.
