Subject: [CWB] Bilingual corpus alignment

Dear all,
Recently I've encountered a problem using cwb's alignment encoding function.
"Problem" might not be the accurate word but, I used a different alignment tool and fitted into cwb's standard format, and ran the regedit and encode procedure. This created an alx file in the source language index file. The tutorial says "This procedure only creates an a-attribute in HOLMES-EN (source corpus), linking it to HOLMES-DE (target corpus).", but that's all I can find. I don't know how to use cqp/cwb to present sentence alignment (i.e. I imagine querying "Sherlock" in the source corpus, it will present both the English and Dutch sentence including "Sherlock"). The attachment shows the command and output. I'm not even sure if the alignment is successful or not. Any help or information that sheds some light to this situation will be greatly appreciated!
