It works quite well and is very well documented. It uses only TeX,
but
works fine in a LaTeX environment.
This looks nice. Is there a reason why it's not on CTAN?
I think it's officially still beta (although many are using it.) John
will put it up on CTAN when it's relatively unchanging in terms of
actual features and functionality.
I would also recommend it for Adam's requirements, since it would
probably allow for easy line numbering as well.
With respect to gb4e (actually the relevant part is cgloss4e, which is
loaded by gb4e) I would generally recommend gb4e over covington, since
covington doesn't interact nicely with various things. However, if
you are using gb4e, make sure you turn off the \automath function,
which allows you to use _ and ^ in text mode by changing their
catcodes. This causes many things to break if you don't know what
you're doing, and it induces a particularly nasty interaction with
fontspec.
