ExPex Mar 2014

-------------------------------------------------------------
ExPex is maintained by John Frampton <j.frampton@neu.edu>

ExPex is designed to assist linguists in typesetting examples and
glosses and in creating named reference to examples and parts of
examples.

The files in this distribution (v 5.0b) are:

   README
   expex.tex            Main macro file
   expex.sty            Latex wrapper for expex.tex
   expex-doc.pdf        User's Guide

   eptexfn.tex          Tex footnote macros
   epltxfn.sty          LaTex footnote package
   epltxchapno.sty      LaTex package for chapter.number example
                        numbering

   expex-demo.tex       The code for most of the examples
   expex-doc.zip        The source code for the User's Guide

-------------------------------------------------------------

expex-demo.tex

This file contains most of the examples in the documentation.  It is
intended to facilitate user experimentation with ExPex typesetting.
Users can easily modify examples and see what the effect is. It can be
run under either Plain Tex or LaTex.  Except for expex.tex and
expex.sty, all files needed to run expex-demo should be part of any
Tex installation.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Changes (from Version 5.0):

1. In earlier versions before 5.0, {} empty items on the gla line were
possible.  In 5.0, {{}} was required.  This version restores the old
behavior.

2. In versions before 5.0, glosses were built in a vbox, hence could
not split between pages.  5.0 made glosses breakable, provided no
explicit width was specified.  5.0 restores the old behavior but
introduces a parameter <glossbreaking>.  It is set to false in
expex.tex so that the default behavior is the old behavior.  But it
can be set to true if the user wants glosses to break between pages.
