Also updated readme with options, and some style improvements.

# GF web-based syntax editor # GF web-based syntax editor
John J. Camilleri John J. Camilleri
December 2012 January 2013
An improved version of the [old syntax editor][1]. A tool for building and manipulating abstract syntax trees in GF.
This is meant as improved replacement of the [old syntax editor][old].
[1]:http://www.grammaticalframework.org/~meza/restWiki/editor.html [old]:http://www.grammaticalframework.org/~meza/restWiki/editor.html
## Example usage ## Example usage
See `editor.html` and `editor_online.js`. If you want to use the tool in your own application, everything you need in the source
files `editor.html` and `editor_online.js`. Contact the [GF developer mailing list][gf-dev]
if you have any problems.
