1. We are grateful to Lou Burnard for his help in extending the TEI specifications to cover interpreting data.
2. For further information about the conventions of reader-friendly formats, see Edwards (1993, 1995).
3. Font choices, multiple spaces, new lines and indentation are not significant in TEI, and have been inserted in these examples solely to facilitate the human reader's understanding of the structure of the encoded text.
4. The names of the various elements and the way they relate to each other (i.e. what elements are allowed within other elements) are defined in a separate file called the Document Type Definition (DTD). Any document linked to a particular DTD must conform with the hierarchy it expresses (i.e. the elements it contains must be present in that DTD and respect the rules it specifies).
5. In cases of larger portions of overlap, we can add more ·anchor/Òs so as to obtain a more precise idea of the synchronisation of utterances: This can be useful for studies of décalage.
6. Some specifications of CSS stylesheets are also compatible with browsers such as Internet Explorer 5.0; full compatibility is expected fairly soon.
