<p>
6/3 (AR) Generalized the <tt>gfe</tt> file format in two ways:
<ol>
<li> Use the real grammar parser, hence <tt>(in M.C "foo")</tt> expressions
may occur anywhere. But the <i>ad hoc</i> word substitution syntax is
abandoned: ordinary <tt>let</tt> (and <tt>where</tt>) expressions
can now be used instead.
<li> The resource may now be a treebank, not just a grammar. Parsing
is thus replaced by treebank lookup, which in most cases is faster.
</ol>
A minor novelty is that the <tt>--# -resource=FILE</tt> flag can now be
relative to <tt>GF_LIB_PATH</tt>, both for grammars and treebanks.
The flag <tt> --# -treebank=IDENT</tt> gives the language whose treebank
entries are used, in case of a multilingual treebank.
<p>
4/3 (AR) Added command <tt>use_treebank = ut</tt> for lookup in a treebank.
This command can be used as a fast substitute for parsing, but also as a
way to browse treebanks.
