[itsdb] Re: Exporting data from tsnlp test suites

[Emily M. Bender]

Hello again,

With some poking around, I was able to answer the
tsnlp question below (the fields I'm interested in
are i-input, p-name, and i-wf), but the itsdb question
remains.  How does one invoke a custom query (from
the Lisp prompt?) in such a way as to get the results
as plain text?
