Hello, 
I have a set of transcripts that are already marked for clauses using the [^c *] method. I need to get type data for a specific type of clause that we have coded. Is there a way to pull those clauses into a new file in order to run freq on that file? Or is the only way to run freq on these clauses to recode each clause as a gem and then do gemfreq?
Thank you,
Kat Shanks

Kat,
I can’t think of any way to make this work exactly as you have described. However, it is easy enough to use KWAL to pull out the relevant utterances. For example, if you code is [^c rel], then the command is
kwal +s”[^c rel]” *.cha

Brian, 
Thank you, that will help limit the amount of data we are working with to recode.
Thanks, 
Kat
