KWAL search to pull user defined code

[Tracy Preza]

Hello,

We want to pull a list utterances that we coded with a @z:se code at the end of a word.  I used the following command line to try to pull a list, but only some coded utterances are getting pulled, and some are not.

KWAL  @ +s*z:se* +t*CHI +d4

 For example, this command line successfully pulled the keyword of the coded utterance  in one transcript: 

*CHI: the brose@z:se [:rose] bushes were planted by the girl scouts yesterday .

But, it did not pull a keyword for another transcript :

*CHI: <some of> [/] (1.38) some of the kids dug a hole almost <two &+f two
feet two or fone@z:se [: one] &+f one feet> [//] two or one feet. 

Neither of these transcripts had errors (I ran checks) and I don't see any formatting differences between them. I also tried running a KWAL command to pick up a different word, and it worked fine. Is there a way to get the command to pick up up all the words tagged with a @z:se code in a batch of files? 

Thank you!

Hi Tracy,

In the utterance with "fone@z:se [: one]" the word [: one] replaces the word "fone@z:se", so KWAL doesn't see the word with @z:se.

In the utterance with "brose@z:se [:rose]" the word [:rose] does not replace word "brose@z:se", because there is no space character after "[:". This should not have passed CHECK. You need to change the "[:rose]" to the "[: rose]".

Try command:

KWAL  @ +s*z:se* +t*CHI +d4 +r5

+r5 will prevent word's replacement with text in [: ...].
