4.19 The Command ga-line (mallex)

Use the command ga-line to make the allomorph rules generate allomorphs for a single lexicon entry. Assume you want to test the second line in the lexicon file mini.lex:

     [surface: "m{a}n", class: noun];
     [surface: "table", class: noun];
     [surface: "wise", class: adjective];

Enter the following line:

     ga-line mini.lex 2

Then mallex generates allomorphs for [surface: "table", class:noun];.

If there is no lexicon entry at this line, the subsequent lexicon entry will be taken.
