Re: [DIG-users] examples

[Daniele T. <dt...@cs...>]

I am afraid the DIG specification does not allow you to do much more at
the moment.
The examples on sourceforge, together with the DIG 1.1 specification

	http://dl-web.man.ac.uk/dig/2003/02/interface.pdf

cover all it can be done at the moment.
When you ask for the equivalents of a concept DIG willl return only
the known concept names (ie atoms), not arbitrary complex ones.
You can ask for the equivalents of man who drives a car and
you will obtain driver, but if you ask for the equivalents of driver
you will only get driver itself back, unless you have other atomic
concepts equivalent to it.
