The legal issue here lies with the Penn Treebank Project and has nothing to do with WSJ Digital Network. Send an email to them to get it right this time. It also seems that you lack knowledge in the department of lawsuit. A lawsuit based on a mere forum post? On top of it I never even mentioned I wanted an illegal copy. How nervous should I really be I wonder. I think you should stop your blind accusations and stop threatening me with lawsuits since it cracks me up to see someone talk about things which he has no idea about.

Sorry, but if you already have a copy in one format, and it only requires you to install an older version of tgrep to translate it into a current tgrep2 format, it seems like a very easy thing to do. Gets you what you need, and you don't have to worry about anything with licensing, etc. Your complaining about "doing proper research", etc., is also (as you put it) hilarious. If you already HAVE a copy, and already know how to translate it, you wouldn't need ANOTHER copy in a different format. The tgrep2 site, as well as many of the sites you can find with Google, has plenty of instructions on how to install tgrep, and how to perform the data conversion. The site I linked to previously has that information as well.

I requested it from a university so it was a legal copy. Unfortunately the university has the file only in that format so they told me to try and find it elsewhere.

Again, no one here is going to help you steal. If you want it for free, and your 'university' already has access to it, then you should follow those channels, and use those resources, to get what you need.
