Autosegmental phonology in LaTeX

At the present time, I have little reason to do this in LaTeX, so my interest in the topic has faded. However, the pst-asr package by John Frampton appears to make this much easier than many other methods. I recommend this package and its documentation as a good starting point.

Keep in mind that the above package (and many methods you may find to do something similar) depends on pstricks, which requires compiling the LaTeX document to PostScript (PS) initially. It cannot be compiled direclty to PDF, although it can be converted to PDF as part of the process. This means that such documments cannot be compiled directly with pdflatex (but, for example, latex, dvips, then ps2pdf will work). If you use the popular TeXworks editor, this may require some modification, which is explained here for Windows.
