This is because AGFL first cuts a sentence into words or word-groups and then applies a regular expression to the individual words. We are aware of this problem, but to fix it is not that easy. The problem at the moment is that we do not yet have a morphological pass, which should hangle this correctly. One of the future developments will go in that direction. The runtime system now actually supports text and integer affixes.
Parsers can now use large lexical databases in an efficient way.
It is now possible to specify open classes of words using wildcards. You can use this feature for making your grammars robust against input containing erroneous fragments. You can choose between word parsing and prefix parsing. The handling of layout in input sentences has been improved. Layout can be abstracted from in the grammar by specifying layout characters as invisble.
