[CWB] Zero width assertion

Hello
There is an undocumented option on CQP language that allows us to say:
[ lema = "eat" ] [: lema = "pig" :]
meaning that the second word should not be "captured".
Unfortunately it seems that:
- it needs to be the last word
- we can't use more than one of these
that is, these doesn't work:
[: lema = "eat" :] [ lema = "pig" ]
[ lema = "eat" ] [: lema = "the" :] [: lema = "pig :]
The questions are:
- is this really not supported, or am I doing anything wrong?
- would it be possible to implement it?
Thank you,
Alberto
