Kura Next Generation - Technical Previews
Kura Interlinear Editor
The Kura Interlinear Editor (KuraILE) will be the annotation GUI of the next major release of Kura. It will support linguists working on
language data (for example in language documentation projects) to add morpho-syntactic annotations to their data. Right now it only supports
Elan's .eaf file format. You can open an .eaf file, add a morpheme and a gloss tier to your transcribed data and save the file.
That's it. Check out the screen video, to see it in action.

Download KuraILE for Windows and Linux:
- Linux package / platform independent source: kuraile-0.1.0.tar.gz
- Windows package: setup-kuraile.exe (on Windows XP: also install .NET framework)
To run KuraILE just unpack and start it (on Linux):
> tar -xzf kuraile-0.1.0.tar.gz > cd kuraile-0.1.0 > python KuraILE.py
You will need the following prerequisites on Linux:
- PyQt
- lxml
- qpy
- evoque
- pyannotation (>=0.2)
My TODO list for upcoming versions:
- Support for Kura XML and Toolbox files
- Metadata support, abbreviation database for glosses (aka annotation tagsets)
- Semi-automatic tagging for known annotations
- Option dialog to alter tier types for utterance, word, ..., tiers
- Search in primary and secondary data
- Bugfixing, bugfixing, bugfixing, ...
