Changes from NSP version 0.69 to 0.71 ------------------------------------- Ted Pedersen, tpederse@d.umn.edu University of Minnesota, Duluth June 16, 2004 Makefile.PL ------------ Updated Makefile.PL with correct version number (Ted) Makefile.PL now creates /man/man3 directory - in previous versions this was not created, sometimes causing an error during "make install" when that directory is not found (Ted) Programs --------- statistic.pl and sort-bigrams.pl were modified by changing the internal N-gram separating marker # to sequence <||>. As some users pointed out, use of # as a separator between the N-grams causes problems when N-gram tokens include #. In 0.71, we used a more rare sequence <||> to separate N-grams in the internal hash structure. (Amruta) Testing ------- Added test cases to catch an error when internal delimiter <||> is detected within N-gram tokens. (Amruta) Fixed test cases for huge-count, that were relying on the mistaken idea that count.pl produces output in sorted form. Now an actual sort is done of count.pl output before comparison with gold standard results. (Amruta)
