Can't pass multiple files in

[iros]

I've attempted the following formats and none of them work:

textkit text2words test_data/alice_short.txt test_data/word_tokens.txt
textkit text2words test_data/alice_short.txt,test_data/word_tokens.txt
textkit text2words test_data/{alice_short,word_tokens}.txt
textkit text2words test_data/*.txt

Is there a different way to pass them along?

It looks like we'll need to change the way we intake file arguments to this:

@click.argument('text', type=click.Path(exists=True), nargs=-1)

I'm investigating...

Ah!

If we replace the text.read() call with content = ''.join([open(f).read() for f in text]) combined with the above line, we should be able to do this. Going to PR.

Just to complete the loop here. I think the usecase is valid - where someone has a directory of chapters or articles that should be treated as a single block of text.

We should be careful to distinguish in the docs the difference between that and the usecase of having multiple files you would want to compare. The later usecase we would still want (for now) to have separate calls to textkit - one for each document to compare.

Can we close with #15 ?

Yep! Closing.
