I should add that this is similar to my request on this list a few =20
weeks back. The ability to output feature structures, in any format, =20
to the standard output would be a welcome improvement of LKB. This is =20
particularly missing for the 'batch processing' option. Running LKB =20
from the command-line, reading a grammar and a file of input =20
sentences from the standard input and printing structures to the =20
standard output would be ideal for me.

I'm running LKB on a Mac, and unfortunately I can't even run it from =20
the command line, let alone disable DISPLAY.
