;; To register a new grammar (here "hans") for parsing with ace and 
;; treebanking with FFTB:
1. Add CPU def to logon/dot.tsdbrc
     (make-cpu
      :host (short-site-name)
      :spawn answer
      :options (list "--hans" "-t")
      :class :hans :grammar "hans" :name "ace" :task '(:parse) :wait wait)
   Also, at end of dot.tsdbrc, add this line with the right grammar name:
   (setf tsdb::*redwoods-treebanker-application* "answer --annotate --hans")

2. Add entries to logon/parse that identify the grammar, give path to load file,
   and allow comparison in [incr tsdb()]
    ;;
    --hans*)
      grammar=hans;
      client=${1##--};
      shift 1;
    ...
    ;;
    hans)
      skeletons="hans";
      echo "(lkb::read-script-file-aux 
             \"${LOGONROOT}/ntu/zhong/cmn/hans/lkb/script\")";
    ...
      ;;
      hans)
        compare=":readings :derivation";
        subsetp=t;
3. Add entries in logon/bin/answer, following --terg:
   twice in file:
   -o "${1}" == "--hans"   
   also:
    ;;
    --hans)
      grammar=${LOGONROOT}/ntu/zhong/cmn/hans/erg.dat;
      config=${LOGONROOT}/ntu/zhong/cmn/hans/ace/config.tdl;
      shift 1;
4. Optionally add entry to /logon/etc/registry, but not needed for ACE/FFTB
5. Add directory 'hans' in logon/lingo/lkb/src/tsdb/skeletons, and add
   subdirectory 'mrs', then copy files from skeletons/english/mrs to the new
   mrs directory, and replace the 'item' file with the right one.  Also copy
   skeletons/francaise/Index.lisp to skeletons/hans and edit as needed.
