Jonathan,
I have been using them a lot in the last two years. You can take a look,
for instance, to the Catalan-Italian pair:
https://github.com/apertium/apertium-cat-ita/blob/master/apertium-cat-ita.cat-ita.metalrx
https://github.com/apertium/apertium-cat-ita/blob/master/apertium-cat-ita.ita-cat.metalrx
There are also macros, which are very useful. For instance, I often have a
different translation for a pronominal and a non-pronominal use of the
verb. The macro "understands" whether we are in one case or the other, and
you don't have to copy-past lots of identical rules, with different verbs.
This was done by Xavi.
