What is Formalisms for Morphographemic Description about?

Recently there has been some interest in rule formaltsms for describing morphologically significant regularities in orthography of words, largely influenced by the work of Koskenniemi. Varioue implementationa of these rules are possible, but there are some weaknesses in the formalism as it stands. An alternative specification formalism is possible which solves some of the problems. This new formalism can be viewed as a variant of the "pure'" Koskenniemi model with certain conetraints relaxed. The new formalism has particular advantages for multiple cheLracter changes. An interpreter has been implemented for the formalism and a significant subset of EngLish morphographenfice has been described, but it has yet to be used for describing other languages.
