CWB Gurus — I am about to teach a course module on corpus searching…naturally using the CWB. Since the server hardware is shared, I am thinking it is better to use BNC-BABY rather the the full BNC so that queries finish quickly. I successfully encoded the
full BNC using Stefan Evert’s excellent script. But when I try to apply the same script to the BABY I get this error
