i thought some people might like this, dan brian has done some smart (tpc-prizewinning?) stuff in the Lingua:: tree, and linguana (a kind of hyperglossic lexicon like a denser and hopefully multilingual wordnet), all XML, natch, could be a beautiful thing once it is made.
-- "No, your thinking is masturbatory." --blech ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 10 Apr 2002 16:51:37 -0600 From: Dan Brian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Lexicon] updates I have updated some of the docs http://linguana.net/docs/lexicon.dtd, and the scripts at http://linguana.net/code/. The changes are minor, but reflect some future directions. I am pretty much writing the Linguana::* Perl modules at the same time I am implementing them in the web interface, which is proving to both help and hinder. I have personal biases again application-specific web programs, and have tried to keep myself from reinventing AxKit in the process. I expect these will be completed in an alpha form within a few weeks. I have also been experimenting with diffmk, an xml diff/merge tool in Perl by Norman Walsh @ Sun. I am not anxious for any solution that relies on expat, but this is quite a good implementation, and would allow each change to simply get a logged diff in a file-per-synset basis. And I do have at least one other treat to look forward to: Linguana::Synset::Graph, which plots pointers relationships dynamically using graphviz. I'm trying to decide if it could comprise a navigation element in the web interface. - Dan _______________________________________________ lexicon mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://linguana.net/mailman/listinfo/lexicon
