Re: [Apertium-stuff] New tool for DixTools

[Xavi I. <xa...@in...>]

I've just checked in the code for the new Dixtools option.

For now, only the *interactive mode* is working (no batch mode yet), so
don't expect much from it; I would consider it just a proof of concept.
It's only tested in standard "dix" files (from the pair es-ca), so it might
not work for metadix files.

If you want to try it, just update and build the SVN version of Dixtools
(or download a snapshot I've just bulit from
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/188135/apertium-dixtools.jar)

How to use it:

* java -jar path/to/apertium-dixtools.jar *enhance *existing_dict.xml *
name_new_dict.dix*

There are 3 parameters

   - *enhance*
      - the name for the tool
   - *existing_dict.dix*
      - the name of the existing dict (i.e.: apertium-es-ca.ca.dix)
   - name_new_dict.dix
      - the name we want the new (*enhanced*) dict to be saved
      - ALERT: the tool simply overrides whatever file exists with that name


If anyone finds any error, don't hesitate to report it to the list. I'll
try to fix it ASAP.

Regards
