+ ajax_http_get(url,callback) now checks the HTTP response status and shows an error message if the status is not OK (is not 200) + New function node(tag,attrs,children) to create document nodes with arbitraty attributes and children. The functions node() and text() should now be enough to construct arbitrary document trees in an easy, functional way, and many of the more specialized functions could be removed. + When calling the function button(label,action,key), the action can be a function instead of a string, so you can use local/anonymous functions. + New function debug(str) adds text to the element with id=debug, if it exists.
DESCRIPTION
The Grammatical Framework (=GF) is a grammar formalism based on type theory.
It consists of
* a special-purpose programming language
* a compiler of the language
* a generic grammar processor
The compiler reads GF grammars from user-provided files, and the
generic grammar processor performs various tasks with the grammars:
* generation
* parsing
* translation
* type checking
* computation
* paraphrasing
* random generation
* syntax editing
GF particularly addresses four aspects of grammars:
* multilinguality (parallel grammars for different languages)
* semantics (semantic conditions of well-formedness, semantic
properties of expressions)
* grammar engineering (modularity, abstractions, libraries)
* embeddability in programs written in other languages (C,C++,
Haskell, Java, JavaScript)
