  Returns:
    Name of Charset

### labelAnnotationIntroducingCharacters

    public char[] labelAnnotationIntroducingCharacters()

  Return an array of characters at which a String should be truncated to give the basic syntactic category of a label. The idea here is that Penn treebank style labels follow a syntactic category with various functional and crossreferencing information introduced by special characters (such as "NP-SBJ=1"). This would be truncated to "NP" by the array containing '-' and "=".

  Specified by:
    `labelAnnotationIntroducingCharacters` in interface `TreebankLanguagePack`
  Returns:
    An array of characters that set off label name suffixes

### basicCategory

    public String basicCategory(String category)

  Returns the basic syntactic category of a String. This implementation basically truncates stuff after an occurrence of one of the `labelAnnotationIntroducingCharacters()`. However, there is also special case stuff to deal with labelAnnotationIntroducingCharacters in category labels: (i) if the first char is in this set, it's never truncated (e.g., '-' or '=' as a token), and (ii) if it starts with one of this set, a second instance of the same item from this set is also excluded (to deal with '-LLB-', '-RCB-', etc.).

  Specified by:
    `basicCategory` in interface `TreebankLanguagePack`
  Parameters:
    `category` - The whole String name of the label
  Returns:
    The basic category of the String

### stripGF

    public String stripGF(String category)

  Description copied from interface: `TreebankLanguagePack`
  Returns the category for a String with everything following the gf character (which may be language specific) stripped.

  Specified by:
    `stripGF` in interface `TreebankLanguagePack`
  Parameters:
    `category` - The String name of the label (may previously have had basic category called on it)
  Returns:
    The String stripped of grammatical functions

### getBasicCategoryFunction

    public Function<String,String> getBasicCategoryFunction()

  Returns a `Function` object that maps Strings to Strings according to this TreebankLanguagePack's basicCategory() method.

  Specified by:
    `getBasicCategoryFunction` in interface `TreebankLanguagePack`
  Returns:
    The String->String Function object

### categoryAndFunction

    public String categoryAndFunction(String category)

  Returns the syntactic category and 'function' of a String. This normally involves truncating numerical coindexation showing coreference, etc. By 'function', this means keeping, say, Penn Treebank functional tags or ICE phrasal functions, perhaps returning them as `category-function`.

  This implementation strips numeric tags after label introducing characters (assuming that non-numeric things are functional tags).

  Specified by:
    `categoryAndFunction` in interface `TreebankLanguagePack`
  Parameters:
    `category` - The whole String name of the label
  Returns:
    A String giving the category and function

### getCategoryAndFunctionFunction

    public Function<String,String> getCategoryAndFunctionFunction()

  Returns a `Function` object that maps Strings to Strings according to this TreebankLanguagePack's categoryAndFunction() method.

  Specified by:
    `getCategoryAndFunctionFunction` in interface `TreebankLanguagePack`
  Returns:
    The String->String Function object

### isLabelAnnotationIntroducingCharacter

    public boolean isLabelAnnotationIntroducingCharacter(char ch)

  Say whether this character is an annotation introducing character.

  Specified by:
    `isLabelAnnotationIntroducingCharacter` in interface `TreebankLanguagePack`
  Parameters:
    `ch` - The character to check
  Returns:
    Whether it is an annotation introducing character

### isStartSymbol

    Whether this is a start symbol

### startSymbolAcceptFilter

    public Filter<String> startSymbolAcceptFilter()

  Return a filter that accepts a String that is a start symbol of the treebank, and rejects everything else.

  Specified by:
    `startSymbolAcceptFilter` in interface `TreebankLanguagePack`
  Returns:
    The filter

### startSymbols

    public abstract String[] startSymbols()

  Returns a String array of treebank start symbols.

  Specified by:
    `startSymbols` in interface `TreebankLanguagePack`
  Returns:
    The start symbols

### startSymbol
