• What is it ?
  It provides a simple-to-use graphic interface to grammatical structure and relations of any text as parsed by the Stanford Parser. It contains a grammatical relation editor to modify, import, export grammatical relation definitions (tregex patterns and features). Written to Java 1.6 and Swing, it is portable across platforms.

• Command line
  linux/unices:

  java -Xmx512M -classpath <path>/lib/grammarbrowser.jar:<path>/lib/stanford-parser.jar grammarbrowser.browser.Browser [parameters]

  java -classpath <path>/lib/grammarbrowser.jar:<path>/lib/stanford-parser.jar grammarbrowser.editor.Editor

  windows:

  java -Xmx512M -classpath <path>\lib/grammarbrowser.jar;<path>\lib/stanford-parser.jar grammarbrowser.browser.Browser [parameters]

  java -classpath <path>\lib/grammarbrowser.jar;<path>\lib/stanford-parser.jar grammarbrowser.editor.Editor

  Note the -Xmx512M parameter sets the JVM memory heap to 512 mega bytes, which may suffice or not depending on analyzed data. It may also stretch the memory requirements too much on some hosts.

• Diff
  Some of the Stanford 1.6.1 distribution classes had to be patched (the patched file are to be found in the grammarbrowser.jar, please note the classpath order on the command line is relevant for the patched classes to override the standard ones):

  • edu/stanford/nlp/trees/GrammaticalRelation.java
    • split into barebones ProtoGrammaticalRelation for core functionality and GrammaticalRelation (which is implemented as inheriting from ProtoGrammaticalRelation)
