For PCT 1.5.0

[stannam]

1. For PCT 1.5

• Important: CHANGE THE VERSION NUMBER (Follow this example: 30e0ec7 )
  • For PCT (e.g., Help > Show version number...) → update version number at corpustools\__init__.py
  • For documentation (e.g., the copyright year at the buttom of each page) → CorpusTools\docs\source\conf.py and then change copyright year (lines 69-70) and version number (lines 76-79)
  • Create a new github branch '1.5.0'

Bug fix

• Homophones in ND [BUG] Homophones in the neighbourhood density calculation #785
• using a column titled 'spelling' as transcription crashes PCT (can't load corpus with column labelled "spelling" used as transcription #756) [not totally fixed, but warning message appears and is fine for release]
• textgrid issues (Textgrid issues #752)
• pronunciation variants issues (Pronunciation variants #751) cf. we have a separate branch for this: 'pronunciation_variants' [pron.vars. in CSV is an enhancement, not a bug; okay for release]
  • pron.vars in two-lined interlinear corpus (cf. [BUG] Default trascription variants and interlinear gloss #787 -- we are not supporting pronunciation variants in 2-lined ilg)
• phono search result should be cumulative (e.g., if the user conducts the same search many times, each search should generate a separate row in the result window.)
• ipa2spe issues [solved!]

Enhancement

• Additional filters for phonological search (Branch 'phono_search_improvement'). Make sure:

  • it works as intended
  • if reversed result window issue still exists on Mac (cf. phonological search  #746)

• In creating corpus from a file, the number column should be 'frequency' by default. #784

• Syllabified example corpus

Documentation

• Write up a new section for bigram selection, and update 'mutual information' and 'transitional probability' to refer to it.

• Update screenshots

  • Phonological search: 'Searches' windows
  • All results windows: column names changed and additional filters added

• "Working with transcriptions and feature systems":

  • user generated 'SPE-like' feature system would be better to include 'cons'

• Phonological search

  • Update 'Saving Searches' (Changed the way we save a search and 'Name this search' )
  • Update docs re: negative searches not being compatible with multiple environments

• Mutual information

  • envrionment selection option
  • in-word pairwise MI

• Transitional probability

• Loading in corpora > Saving and exporting a corpus or feature file

  • add how to export a corpus with syllable delimiter

• Write the release notes

• Introduction page (version x.x differs from ... version y.y ... )

• decide about command line utility -- add notes in documentation that say "Not actively supported with v. 1.5 and later"

• Functional load:

  • optimization? (optimize FL algorithm #733)
  • visualization? (FL visualization  #734)

2. Not now

• Uniqueness point calculation? (Uniqueness point calculation #753)
• Export tone and stress (Export corpus #750)
• Change the way downloadable feature and corpus files are hosted
• A unified feature-transcription file
• Include syllables
  • in environment selection dialogue box? (include syllables in environment selection dialogue box #732)
  • in analysis algorithms? (Allow syllables to be options in analysis algorithms #694)
• Phonological search
  • corpus subset based on transcription? (corpus subset based on the transcription column #724)

already fixed? or simply leave as 'known issues'?

• "Can't download feature files" on macOS, Mojave version (10.14.6) feature file issue from user #737
  • Unable to replicate this. (I remember it was a problem specific to a Mac version??)
• can we close them??
  • "Example corpus crashes" Example corpus crashes #706
  • Buckeye feature matrix issues with feature files #681
  • Buckeye Corpus Buckeye Corpus #677

For some reason, my cross-reference to the releases page on https://github.com/PhonologicalCorpusTools/CorpusTools/blob/master/docs/source/introduction.rst#id35 is not showing up as a link on https://corpustools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/introduction.html...I'm sure I've done something silly with the formatting. (Or maybe it's because there's both a folder and an .rst file named 'release'?)

@kchall It seems like :doc: instead of :ref: is used when referring to a file.
The link is now working. 😊
