Arguments

transcript.types

A list of transcript types.

## Perform a search of interviews or monologues
transcript.types <- c("interview","monologue")
results <- getMatches(labbcat.url, list(segment="I"),
  transcript.expression = expressionFromTranscriptTypes(transcript.types))

## Perform a search of all transcripts that aren't word-lists.
results <- getMatches(labbcat.url, list(segment="I"),
  transcript.expression = expressionFromTranscriptTypes("wordlist", NOT=true))
} # }
