New Rule Assistant for Automatic Rule Creation

• FLExTrans now has a Rule Assistant module. It gives you a graphical way to define things like agreement and then it generate the needed Apertium rules automatically. This module is very powerful. It can generate multiple rules which might consist of dozens of sets of conditional logic blocks. Constituents of the phrase can be reordered; affixes can be reordered, added or deleted and much more.
• New modules: Text In Rules and Text Out Rules which help you massage the data coming into the FLExTrans and the data going out of FLExTrans. The module: Import Text From Paratext runs the Text In Rules. In addition, a new module called Fix Up Synthesis Text is available to add into the Drafting collection. This module runs the Text Out rules.
• New module: Link All Senses As Duplicate to link all senses between two identical FLEx projects. This is useful when a source FLEx project has been copied to become a target project.
• STAMP synthesis now correctly handles default inflection classes.
• Bug fixes.
