Hello,
I am running CHIP on several transcripts, and I would like to import the output statistics into another program (R) for analysis. In particular, I want to be able to read in the ADU, CHI, ASR, and CSR stats (the +d1 portion of the output). R doesn't seem able to read the .cex files (I am using the R function read.table, if you happen to be familiar with that), so I was hoping to switch the CLAN output format to something like .txt instead. In the manual, the section on the +f switch seems to suggest that it is possible to change the file extension by typing +f.txt, but when I do this, I just get files that end with ".txt.cex". I've tried it with and without quotes around the .txt in the +f switch, and with several commands other than CHIP, such as FREQ and KWAL. I continue to get .txt.cex files in my output folder no matter what I do.
This is the command I'm using in CLAN:
chip +bMOT +cCHI +g +harticles.cut +hsubpro.cut +hpronounobjs.cut -hexclude.cut +d1 +f.txt *.cha
I'm running it on a MacBook Pro (OSX 10.6.8) and I'm pretty sure I'm using the most recent version of CLAN (I re-installed it about a week ago).
Any assistance you can provide would be much appreciated. Or perhaps there is a totally different, more straight forward way to export CLAN output into data tables or spreadsheets?
Thanks in advance,
Rose Maier
