[CWB] export corpus

[Josep M. Fontana]

Thanks Stephanie. I realize that I might have introduced some confusion 
when I mixed different things in my first message.

The specific corpus that I mentioned when I talked about the export 
problems we were having was our installation of the XML BNC corpus. The 
corpus for which we need to export the tokens plus the POS and lemma 
tags more urgently, though, is not in an XML format. It is actually the 
corpus Cristina developed in her thesis; the first corpus we ever 
installed using CWB. This was before we started using the CQPWeb interface.

So, we didn't use the XML format for tags in that corpus. I have tried 
to find .vrt files but I find none for that corpus. If those files only 
exist for corpora with XML tags, then this is perhaps not surprising.

Is there any other way to export the text with the tags that doesn't 
involve extracting that information from a .vrt file?
