NAME

rawtextFreq.pl - Perl program for finding the frequencies of words in raw text files

SYNOPSIS

rawtextFreq.pl --compfile COMPFILE --outfile OUTFILE [--stopfile=STOPFILE] {--stdin | --infile FILE [--infile FILE ...]} [--wnpath WNPATH] [--resnik] [--smooth=SCHEME] | --help | --version

OPTIONS

--compfile=filename

    The name of a file containing the compound words (collocations) in
    WordNet

--outfile=filename

    The name of a file to which output should be written

--stopfile=filename

    A file containing a list of stop listed words that will not be
    considered in the frequency counts.  A sample file can be down-
    loaded from
    http://www.d.umn.edu/~tpederse/Group01/WordNet/words.txt

--wnpath=path

    Location of the WordNet data files (e.g.,
    /usr/local/WordNet-2.0/dict)

--resnik

    Use Resnik (1995) frequency counting

--smooth=SCHEME

    Smoothing should used on the probabilities computed.  SCHEME can
    only be ADD1 at this time

--help

    Show a help message

--version

    Display version information

--stdin

    Read from the standard input the text that is to be used for
    counting the frequency of words.

--infile=PATTERN

    The name of a raw text file to be used to count word frequencies.
    This can actually be a filename, a directory name, or a pattern (as
    understood by Perl's glob() function).  If the value is a directory
    name, then all the files in that directory and its subdirectories will
    be used.

    If you are looking for some interesting files to use, check out
    Project Gutenberg: <http://www.gutenberg.org>.

    This option may be given more than once (if more than one file
    should be used).
