TGToolkit Tutorial

This is a Praat plug-in that focuses on TextGrid objects. By using this tool, you can process many TextGrid files with just a few clicks. Through this tutorial, I will show you the basics.

Getting started

The TGToolkit menu is composed of several commands. They are divided in four main categories: Create, Modify, Query and Clean. When you click on any of the plug-in commands, a dialogue box will pop up. Although, these dialogue boxes have some advanced features for searching files within sub-folders or pair of files (audio and TextGrid) in different directories, we will not review them until the advance feature section. For now, we will assume that your audio and TextGrid files are in the same directory.
