Label file format

A label file consists of a header and one or more label bodies. The header consists of the header keyword ``LDH:'' and a number of lines providing information about the labelling and the speech file to which it applies. The number of lines in the header is not fixed. The header continues until the label body ``LBD:'' keyword appears.

The label body specifies the type and location within the speech signal file of each segment that has been labelled. It continues until either another label body keyword ``LBD:'' or an end-of-label-file ``ELF:''
