I don't understand the splitter/README file. #8

Closed jeremiah closed 9 years ago

Hi,

I realize that the authors of this software are non-native English speakers. :-)

I'm hoping to get a little help understanding the splitter/README file in ninka. It says; "Before you can start using Ninka, you need to create the sentence breaking program 'splitter.pl'" But splitter.pl is an executable perl script and doesn't need to be "created" in order to be used. What does the term "create" mean in this context? Does it mean I need to put splitter.pl someplace where ninka.pl can see it? (This seems to be the case because ninka.pl looks in $path/splitter/splitter.pl).

If this is the case, perhaps I don't need to actually create anything, ninka.pl will find splitter.pl because its already there? At least if you pull from GitHub.

Cheers,

Jeremiah

Closing because I believe the splitter script is now deprecated in ninka and incorporated into other code.
