[CWB] Adding markup to query results

[Hannah Kermes]

Hello Alberto,

you can mark the respective position using the so-called target (marked 
by an @ in front of the respective position).
[pos="X"][]*@[pos="Y"][]*[pos="X"]
The target is then an anchor point same as "match" and "matchend" and 
you can refer to it in the same way  for grouping, counting, tabulate, ...
However, you only have one of these targets.
If you put the target on an optional position, the target will also be 
optional. If you put it on an element with flexible length -
@[pos="Y"]*
it will be put on the last element.

Best
Hannah
