Kura Description

Kura - Complete, professional system for the handling of linguistic data, especially fieldwork data from small-corpus languages Kura is an application for linguists working with fieldwork or manuscript data. It supports the entry, analysis and presentation of linguistic data, be it recordings or manuscripts. Kura is a multi-user, multi-language, multi-project application, meaning that more linguists can simultaneously work with all data, and that the data is not restricted to one language. Besides, Kura has the notion of projects, and all data can be handled within any project. Being written in Python, the programming language of choice for subject experts, Kura is extensible and provides very easy means to develop and use other modules, such as parsers. Because Kura is open source software, it is easy to adapt any component to the special needs of the user. Here are some key features of "Kura":· multi-user · multi-language · multi-project · network-transparent · integration of recordings and manuscripts · extensible both through a dynamic data model and through adding code. · open-source · 100% Unicode · Support for standard tagsets · Generation of documents in docbook (which can be used to produce html or pdf, in the future rtf, too). Requirements:· Python >= 2.1· PyQt >= 3.4.2 (required sip >= 3.4.1)NOTES: 1. Use this command to create Mac .app with py2app from sources: python setup-mac.py py2app --include sip. 2. Kura is released under the Python License (CNRI Python License).
