LookupError NLTK Resource punkt_tab not found

[nateProjects]

Hiya! I'm getting a 'LookupError' - Resource punkt_tab not found. Please use the NLTK Downloader to obtain the resource:

I have imported it and it is in /Users/nat/nltk_data and it is looking there, but still not finding it.

I'm on MacOS 15.0.1 M1 Arm. Thanks!

About to push up a fix for this :)

[aedocw]

NOT FIXED :(

I was able to re-produce, merged and closed too quickly...

[aedocw]

I ran pip install --upgrade nltk and it's fixed. Unfortunately I think you'll have to do that, it can't be done from inside epub2tts-edge.

Please try that and let me know if it resolves the issue.

That worked perfectly! Thanks so much! I'll recommend this to any I think could use it - I certainly will! Cheers! Nate
