This is an example from the file utts:

	The first record identifies the file type and hence the structure of the rest of the file.  The file is rewritten after every session, so the values
change appropriately.  

	The first character identifies whether recognition or recall is currently active.

	The second character identifies the ladder rung with which to commence a session

	The third character indicates whether affixes or primitives are
being studied (Macteach 2&3) or unused (Macteach 1&4).

	The fourth character indicates the number of correct repetitions
required to escape the error box after an incorrect response.

	The fifth character encodes the time alloted for a response in
test mode (up to about 9 seconds to the nearest 10th.

	The sixth character indicates the file type.

	The following character is a return (Macteach 2&3) or the beginning of a string giving the file name of the comment file (Macteach 1&4)

	The remaining description is  file dependent
	
	The first 4 bytes of the first field contain the rung numbers
for both recognition and recall for affix mode and primitive mode (Macteach 2&3)  Only two are used for Macteach 1&4.  The value
also indicates, if the flashcard is in the error box, if it is ready for
release. Macteach 1&4 have an additional byte indicating which
test mode is active  (Sentences are tested in segments with words being replaced by blanks.  This byte indicates what must be blanked.

	Following these bytes is the Loglan sentence.  The next
record is the English translation  without the initial number bytes.  A number in this position is the ordinal of an explanatory comment from the comment file.

	Here is the commentary that explains the parsing of the 
answer:


/* Do a string comparison, word by word ignoring case and taking into account all possible alternatives. On entry str2 contains the correct string, perhaps with numerous alternatives, and str1 is the test string entered by the user.  
 	Str2 may contain numerous punctuation marks with special meanings. Parenthesized words (Š) indicate something which need not be present but may be. The marks =  or : indicate the left hand end of a set of alternatives, = includes a space  (The man=bought/purchased a coat) and : does not (He is a grand:father/parent)  The marks + and & are right-hand ends, + including a space, and & not. Such  right-hand ends are considered a part of each alternative.  Alternative  expressions are separated by '/'. A backslash is used to mark a punctuation 
 character which must be present in str1, otherwise punctuation is ignored. 
	 A space ends a word or pseudo-word group, an entity which is compared as a unit.  
	 Square brackets indicate comments in the Loglan, comments in the English are  separated by '|'. The match works by creating a line containing the text,  and a pointer line which indicates transfer points to resume testing after a  match fails.*/

Consider the example sentence 
I+hope-you/wish-you-would/would-like-you-to eat that.
	A correct answer would contain ³I², then one of the alternatives
³hope you², ³wish you would², or ³would like you to²,  followed by ³eat that².

An example of the prims file is as follows:

1124N1
4400badjo	baj	bough/limb/branch	of..
4400badlo	bad	bundle/package/parcel/pack	of/containing..
4400bakso	bao	box/crate/carton	of/containing..
4400bakto	bak	bucket/pail	of/containing..

The first record is as described above.  Remaining records are divided into several fields.  The primitive is included with the rung values in the first field.   The second field contains the affix or affixes, with a hyphen if none are assigned.  The next field is the English response with alternatives as above, and the final field gives a brief indication of the place structure
