export_rpraat: Export a transcript object to a 'rPraat' TextGrid object

Description

Advice: In most situations it is more convenient to use act::corpus_export for exporting annotation files.

export_rpraat(
  t,
  filterTierNames = NULL,
  filterSectionStartsec = NULL,
  filterSectionEndsec = NULL
)

Value

rPraat TextGrid object

Arguments

t

Transcript object; transcript to be converted.

filterTierNames

Vector of character strings; names of tiers to be included. If left unspecified, all tiers will be exported.

filterSectionStartsec

Double; start of selection in seconds.

filterSectionEndsec

Double; end of selection in seconds.

Details

This function is to create compatibility with the rPraat package. It converts an act transcript to a rPraat TextGrid object.
