README for JKimmo: A Java Interface of PC-KIMMO morphological analyzer


Abstract

	This README describes how to use JKimmo, a Java interface for 
        PC-KIMMO, the morphological analyzer provided by Summer Institute 
        of Linguistics.

Introduction

        JKimmo is a GUI interface for PC-KIMMO. PC-KIMMO is a 
        two-level processor for morphological analysis. PC-KIMMO was 
        developed using C and consequently doesn't support Unicode. 
        JKimmo will give the PCKIMMO user the facility to use Unicode
        with the help of a transliteration file. JKimmo is therefore an
        interface of mutilingual morphological analysis using the existing
        PC-KIMMO library. PC-KIMMO library is available at the URL
       `http://www.sil.org/pckimmo/v2'.

Requirements

        1. An UNIX-like operating system. We use Fedora Core 
        GNU/Linux systems. 

	2. JDK version 1.4.2_01 or later.

	3. The PC-KIMMO library, available at the URL`http://www.sil.org/pckimmo/v2'.

	4. GNU make (other make's tend not to work). Check the
	version of your make with "make --version"; if it does not reply
	with "GNU Make version x.y.z", then it is not GNU make.
	
	5. Bangla fonts available at 'http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Bangla-HOWTO/usersguide.html#fonts'

	JKimmo hasn't been tested on Windows. Anyone is welcome to make a 
	workable version for Windows 

Compiling the JKimmo Source

        1. Compile all java sources
        2. Create the stub header using javah command
        3. Make the native code: just type make
        4. Set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH (export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:.)
        5. Type "java JKimmo" at the prompt

Using JKimmo Binary and jar

       1. Set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
       2. Run the Jkimmo.jar (java -jar Jkimmo.jar)

Getting started with JKimmo

	Here are the instructions for trying out JKimmo with Bengali support, a
        PC-KIMMO description of Bengali morphology (only rules). The Bangla rule file 
        is in the jkimmo/test directory.

        At first, load the rule file by clicking rules -> load button. Type the
        input text on input text area then click the generate button. The result
        will be displayed in the result area.
