NAME
         list-edges - reads penn treebanks, prints out all edges found in each tree, one tree per line

SYNOPSIS
         list-edges [options] [file ...]

         Options:
            -help        brief help message
            -man         full documentation
           --verbose     more verbose to STDERR
           --directinput allow TTY to STDIN

           --format FORMAT provide a different output format

           --terminal    include (exclude) terminal expansions
           --noterminal  default is --noterminal

   Sample output
         $ echo "(S (NP (DET the) (NN dog)) (VP (VBD ran)))" | ./list-edges --terminal
         DET::the,0,1 NN::dog,1,2 NP,0,2 VBD::ran,2,3 VP,2,3

OPTIONS
       --help
       -?  Show this help message.

       --man
           Show the manual page for this script.

       --directinput
           By default, if there is a human-operated TTY on STDIN, this script
           issues a usage message and exits (this is so users can run
           "list-edges" and get the usage message).  If you really want to
           type trees by hand on STDIN, add the --directinput flag.

       --verbose
           Repeatable option. Report more of what we're doing.

       --terminal
       --noterminal
           Whether or not to print the edges indicating terminal items.

       --format FORMAT
           doesn't currently do anything

DESCRIPTION
       This program lists all edges in the trees presented, one tree per line.
       Edges are LABEL,INDEX,INDEX where INDEX values come from between the
       words (0-based).

   CAVEATS
       The trees must be in Penn treebank format.

   TO DO
       None that I know of.
