+<pre>
+ lt-proc -w fo-en.automorf.bin |\

+===Writing a dependency grammar CG for Matxin===
+End your file with something like this:
+<pre>
+AFTER-SECTIONS
+SUBSTITUTE (@SUBJ→)   (@SUBJ→ CHUNK) TARGET (@SUBJ→);
+SUBSTITUTE (@←SUBJ)  (@←SUBJ CHUNK) TARGET (@←SUBJ);
+SUBSTITUTE (@OBJ→)    (@OBJ→ CHUNK)  TARGET (@OBJ→);
+SUBSTITUTE (@←OBJ)   (@←OBJ CHUNK)  TARGET (@←OBJ);
+...
+</pre>
+to define what you want to be a chunk.
+Note that since Matxin expects that no non-CHUNK nodes may have CHUNK children, any word which might get a CHUNK daughter in the CG has to also get the CHUNK label.
