Searching for tense regardless of mood

[dmiller]

Is there an easy way to search for verbs in a particular tense regardless of voice or mood in the power user mode?

It seems I am required to select a mood before I can choose the tense in BNM.

Thanks,

There is, but you have to "trick" the command line.

For example if you want to find all the present tense verbs do the following:

1. *@v

2. After typing the 'v' hit your Esc key. This will cause the Command Line Morphology Help Menu to go away.

3. Now type a '?'

4. You Command Line Morphology Help Menu should return and you can then type 'p'

5. You can continue with more codes or just type '*' at this point.

In the end you should have something like the following on the Command Line:

.*@v?p*
