ChaToVtt
Converts CLAN CHAT transcripts to WebVTT subtitles
This conversion will only work well for CHAT transcripts that are fully aligned; i.e. all lines include time alignment bullets.
The CLAN parser is not exhaustive; it one parses:
- Disfluency marking with &+ - e.g.
so &+sund Sunday - Non-standard form expansion - e.g.
gonna [: going to] - Incomplete word completion - e.g.
dinner doin(g) all - Acronym/proper name joining with _ - e.g.
no T_V in my room - Retracing - e.g.
<some friends and I> [//] uhorand sit [//] sets him - Repetition/stuttered false starts - e.g.
the <picnic> [/] picnicorthe Saturday [/] in the morning - Errors - e.g.
they've <work up a hunger> [* s:r]orthey got [* m] to
