How to prepare training texts? #15

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Similar to www.inference.phy.cam.ac.uk/dasher/Training.html write
documentation on the Wiki (and helper scripts in the repo?) to prepare 
training texts, so that training texts, dictionaries and suggested common 
input strings (ie, punctuation sets) for languages can be contributed to the 
package by users.

(Eg, in French they use « » instead of " " for quotes, and a space is 
required both before and after all punctuation marks and symbols with two or 
more visual parts such as : ; « » ! ? % $ #) 

adhesiontext.com shows a little how language-specific presets can ork.
