This is the beta test release of KTEXT, a morphological parser that
processes text. KTEXT is intended to be used with PC-KIMMO (though it
is a stand-alone program). PC-KIMMO is a program for doing computational
phonology and morphology. It is typically used to build morphological
parsers for natural language processing systems. PC-KIMMO is described
in the book "PC-KIMMO: a two-level processor for morphological analysis"
by Evan L. Antworth, published by the Summer Institute of Linguistics (1990).
The PC- KIMMO software is available for MS-DOS (IBM PCs and
compatibles), Macintosh, and UNIX. The book (including software) is
available for $23.00 (plus postage) from:
International Academic Bookstore
7500 W. Camp Wisdom Road
Dallas TX, 75236
U.S.A.
phone 214/709-2404
fax 214/709-2433
PC-KIMMO (the IBM version) is available from SIMTEL20
(wsmr-simtel20.army.mil [192.88.110.20]) as
PD1:<MSDOS.EDUCATION>PCKIMMO.ZIP. The Macintosh version of PC-KIMMO
is available from sumex-aim.stanford.edu [36.44.0.6] as
/info-mac/app/pc-kimmo.hqx.
The KTEXT program will be of very little use to you without the PC-KIMMO
program and book.
This software release should contain the following items:
KTEXT program
CED program (not available for Macintosh)
KTEXT User's Guide
ReadMe file
English subdirectory
Tagalog subdirectory
The user's guide is a plain text file, though it does contain a few eight-bit
accented characters.
There are two samples provided, one for English and one for Tagalog.
To run KTEXT on the English sample, type:
ktext -w -x english.ctl -i alice.txt -o alice.ana
To run KTEXT on the Tagalog sample, type:
ktext -w -x tag.ctl -i tag.txt -o tag.ana
I would like to hear your reactions to KTEXT, both pro and con.
