The XMG Manual
Résumé
The XMG system corresponds to what is usually called a "metagrammar compiler". More precisely it is a tool for designing large scaled grammars for natural language. Provided a compact representation of grammatical information, XMG combines elementary fragments of information to produce a fully redundant strongly lexicalised grammar. It is worth noticing that by XMG, we refer to both a formalism allowing one to describe the linguistic information contained in a grammar, and a device computing grammar rules from a description based on this formalism.
