<p>I don't have time to look at it, but it looks like the sort of
thing that used to happen when a file had windows end of line
encoding and the system was expecting Linux or vice versa. Dan
wouldn't see it because the file would be autoconverted. I
thought we had made the systems robust to that, but maybe it's
similar but not actually end of line. <br>

<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">I cannot reproduce the
misbehavior you describe. I loaded your grammar into each of
the two systems (LOGON LKB and LKB-FOS), and in each system I
saw no errors on loading, and I was able to successfully parse
the sentence "Kim adores snow in Oslo" (two parses produced,
as expected). Note that there is no attempt to define a type
"null" (without asterisks) in your user-fns.lsp, so I also
don't understand how you could get the error messages you
report about that undefined type.</p>

<div>Dear developers,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We've been using a toy grammar (attached) in an
introductory CompLing class here at UW for a number of
years. Mostly we've been using it with a VM that was
built for the grammar engineering class, but I seem to
be remembering very positively that I used to be able to
use it with e.g. LKB FOS a year ago. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This year at least, it seems like I cannot use it
with either LKB FOS or the logon distribution of the
LKB. On both versions of the LKB, I observe the
following:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1) The grammar doesn't load, complaining about the
NULL type:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>

class="" width="348" height="478"><br>
</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2) I suspected that this is because, in types.tdl,
*null* has asterisks but in e.g. user-fns.lsp it does
not? Removing asterisks around null seems to help with
the errors but it doesn't look like the grammar is
working: there are no parses or even parse charts
produced.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Would anyone be so kind to take a look and advise me
as to how to update the toy grammar so it is working? Or
perhaps this sounds like something in my (two!)
setups?..</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you,</div>
