GF has its roots in -type theory, which is widely used in the semantics of natural language. Some of these ideas were first implemented in ALF, Another Logical Framework, -in 1992; the book //Type-Theoretical Grammar// (by A. Ranta, OUP 1994) has a chapter and an appendix on this. The first implementations did not have -a parser, and GF proper, started in 1998, was an implementation of yet another LF together with concrete syntax supporting generation and parsing. -Grammatical Framework was a natural name for this. We tried to avoid it in the beginning, because it sounded pretentious in its generality. But the -name was just too natural to be avoided. - - - -===Is GF backward compatible?=== - - - -===Do I need Haskell to use GF?=== - -No. GF is a language of its own, and you don't need to know Haskell. And if you download the GF binary, you don't need any Haskell tools. But if you want to -become a GF developer, then it's better you install GF from the latest source, and then you need the GHC Haskell compiler to compile GF. But even then, you -don't need to know Haskell yourself. - - -===What is a lock field?=== - diff --git a/doc/gf-people.html b/doc/gf-people.html deleted file mode 100644 index 37e430ae7..000000000 --- a/doc/gf-people.html +++ /dev/null @@ -1,132 +0,0 @@ -<!DOCTYPE html> -<html> - -<head> -<title>GF People - - - - - - - -
