Instructions for Electronic Submission to
		       Computational Linguistics

To submit a manuscript electronically to Computational Linguistics:

1) Retrieve the CL LaTeX and BibTeX style files at

	ftp://ftp.cs.columbia.edu/acl-l/Styfiles/CLstyle/clsubmission.tar.gz
or
	http://www.aclweb.org/cl/

This distribution tar file contains the CL style file , which you must
use for electronic submissions.  This tar file includes the following
items:


     o	cl.sty		LaTeX style file

     o	cl-doc.tex	Documentation on use of the LaTeX style. Also
			serves as a sample document using the style.

     o	veritas.eps	A Postscript figure imported into
				cl-doc.tex to demonstrate the process.

     o	cl-doc.bib	Bibliography file for cl-doc.tex

     o  fullname.bst	bib file

     o  fullname.sty	bib style file	

You can also reach these files from http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~acl by
clicking on RESOURCES.

2) Prepare your submission in LaTeX using cl.sty and fullname.bst.
Use of cl.sty is documented in cl-doc.tex.  To use LaTex2e, use the following preamble:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{cl}
\usepackage{fullname}
...

Separate documentation on the fullname style is available with the
fullname distribution.  The same style files should be used for
manuscript submission and in the preparation of the final version of
manuscripts accepted for publication.  However, please note that for
*submissions* and for submission of final hard copy, you must prepare
your manuscript using double spacing; for this purpose, include the
line:

     \setlength{\baselineskip}{2\baselineskip}	% double-spacing

*after* the \begin{document} specification or use an alternate
double-spacing style file if available.

Please do *not* use other LaTeX style files or macros except those
standardly available.  If you must use nonstandard style or macro
files, they must be included with your submission.

Your submission will be comprised of a set of files:

     o	Your LaTeX source file.  You should name this using the last
	name of the first author and the two-digit year of submission,
	e.g., "smith-95.tex".  Remember to double-space.

     o	Your BibTeX source file.  You should name this, e.g.,
	"smith-95.bib".  Please remember to specify *this* file
	as your bibtex source file in your latex source (e.g.
	\bibliography{smith-95}).

     o	Any Postscript files you imported as figures (using the
	widely available psfig.tex macros).

     o	Any nonstandard style or macro files used by the LaTeX source.

     o	NOTHING ELSE.

Use the script "uufiles" (available from the ACL website, the Columbia
ftp site, and listed below) to package these files together into a
file named, e.g., "smith-95.uu".

				 IMPORTANT

	The CL staff cannot be responsible for figuring out how to
	deal with troublesome LaTeX source.  If we are unable to
	LaTeX your paper immediately, we will have to ask you to
	submit another copy of the source or to submit your
	manuscript in hard copy.
	************************************************************

3) Once you have prepared your submission, send the following items to
compling@ics.mq.edu.au; the subject line of each message should contain
the last name of the first author and the words "CL submission",
(e.g. "Subject: Smith CL submission"):

     a) A note from the author of record (the author to whom
	correspondence about the manuscript is to be addressed) stating
	that this is a submission to computational linguistics and
	providing the following information about the author of record:

	name
	email address
	phone number and fax
	regular mail address

     b) An ascii file containing the names of the authors and their 
	institutional affiliations, the title of the manuscript, and an 
	abstract of the manuscript of up to 200 words, in the following
	format: 

		Title:  "The Title of this Paper"

		Author(s):  Author1 and Author2
			Institution1, Institution2

				ABSTRACT

		This is the abstract of this CL submission....

     c) The file generated in Step (2) above, e.g., "smith-95.uu",
sent as plain text, *not* as a mime attachment.  The
	CL staff will check this version as soon as possible to see if
	we are able to process it.  If there is a problem we will
	contact you.  Remember:
