!!!First-aid documentation for the Cornish analyser project


You may work on the central computer (victorio) or on your own Mac or Linux.



!!victorio

If you do the former, open a terminal window, and write (substitute trond for your own name)

{{ssh trond@victorio.uit.no}}

!!If you work on your local machine:


!!Local machine or victorio:

Pro/con factors deciding whether to work on victorio or on own machine:

* pro victorio:
** All tools are there (locally you must install them)
** The shell is UTF-8
* con victorio:
** The learning curve for emacs is a bit steep, But well, you can use nano.
* pro local (if it is macintosh or linux):
** If you do not know emacs or vim, you may use SubEthaEdit (mac)
** or gedit (Linux) locally. And you may work online.
* Windows?
** You may edit files on Windows (see chapter on TortoiseCVS on the giellatekno documentation page) but running the analyser  is difficult.

!!After having logged in

 (or opened terminal locally, if you work locally on mac or linux)


# You want the latest version of the tools. Write: {{cvs co st}}
# If there are files from st/kor/src/ listed in the long list of files,
  you want to __compile__ yourself new binary (program) files. Go to the 
  Cornish source catalogue ({{cd st/kor/src}} and write {{make}}.
# Now, if there are no error messages, you have a Cornish analyser, 
  in the neighbouring folder st/kor/bin.
  Its name is {{kor.fst}} (for analysis) and {{ikor.fst}} (for generation).
  You may use it with the following command
  (before you use it it might be wise to go one catalogue up:
  ({{cd ..}}), In this way, your working catalogue is kor, which is 
  convenient.).  Then, write {{lookup -flags mbTT -utf8 bin/kor.fst}}.Then 
  you may write in .e.g. {{grogys}} or some mutated form of it.




!!To edit the texts:

open the files:

* kor-lex.txt
** containing tags and common morphology
* noun-kor-lex.txt
** containing noun roots	
* noun-kor-morph.txt
** containing noun morphology
* xfst-kor.txt	
** containing phonological rules	
	
Every time you have changed the source files you must compile again.
