Linguistic Tree Constructor is an application for drawing linguistic syntax trees. Its main strength is assisting in data production by quickly analyzing large amounts of text. "Generic" trees are supported, as well as RRG and X-Bar trees. Node-categories are user-definable, and additional user-definable labels can also be applied to each node. Publication-quality, high-resolution, horizontal trees can be drawn. The file format is based on TIGER-XML.

Recent releases


Changes: Two bugs were fixed. First, having an ampersand in the output filename or path would result in LTC not being able to reload the file after saving. Second, the DTD in the XML output did not parse in external programs. Also, it is now possible to visit the LTC homepage, as well as the LTC mailinglist signup page, from within LTC.


Changes: A crash bugfix was made. Bugfixes in printing right-to-left languages were made. Speed improvements were made across the whole range of available operations.


Changes: Several bugs which could lead to a crash were fixed. These are usability fixes, not security fixes.


Changes: The file format was changed from an ad-hoc solution to being based on the TIGER-XML standard. All tree operations are now substantially faster. The state of the interface is now saved in the document file. Export to Emdros MQL was improved.


Changes: Horizontal trees were added. Right-to-left languages (such as Hebrew and Arabic) are now much better supported. The user-configurable files with node types can now live in a user-controlled directory, rather than in a system-wide directory.
