## SCRIPTS

=head1 SCRIPTS

The following executable scripts are distributed with the DDC package:

=over 4

=item ddc-query.perl

Simple script for querying a distributed DDC server using the
L<DDC::Client::Distributed|DDC::Client::Distributed> and
L<DDC::Format|DDC::Format> modules.

=item ddc-expand-lts-query.perl

Simple string-manipulation
script for translating a query which may contain a phonetic identity
operator of the form:

 $p~TEXT

(where TEXT is some literal orthographic text) into a valid DDC query string
for a server which indexes a '$p' field with phonetic forms as returned by
a finite-state transducer (in Gfsm format) which must be specified to the
script.

Requires Lingua::LTS and Gfsm.

=item ddc-lts-wrapper.perl

DDC wrapper daemon which transparently
translates phonetic identity queries as for ddc-expand-lts-query.perl.

Requires Lingua::LTS and Gfsm.
