    Dear Devi

    A couple of years ago my colleague Diego Molla Aliod has written a
    LaTeX style that displays Link Grammar links. I have subsequently
    adapted it to display dependencies in the classical arrow notation.
    If you prefer the equivalent stemma/tree notation, you may have to
    adapt a package like qtree.

    The style and self-explaining examples can be downloaded from my
    homepage under

    http://www.ifi.unizh.ch/cl/gschneid/latex/

    The style can display crossing dependencies and different dependency
    types. Since you have to provide character positions, it is not user-
    friendly but simple to use and versatile. I hope that you will find
    it helpful.

    Best regards

    Gerold
