Grammar checking #278

Open sonnyp opened 5 years ago

sonnyp commented 5 years ago

I would love to have grammar checking and suggestion in Marker.

One option is to use https://github.com/languagetool-org/languagetool It would require to start the java web server locally and use the HTTP API.

It probably is too much as a dependency so maybe as an optional dependency?

Unfurtunally languagetool package is available in Arch but not in Debian, Ubuntu or Fedora.

Hi, I would love to have some grammar check but I don't think language-tool is suitable for us as is in java and use http api. I would like to have something in C, I know that there are many NLP tools in python but I do not know any in C, I will look for some C based one.

Thanks, M

Would it be acceptable to have a C++ library and put a C wrapper over it?
