Anyone have a copy of this? Thanks in advance.
Yes, I have a copy here. It's Rev: 2630, dated 2006.
Which means it doesn't work with current versions of newLISP.
If you don't hear from the authors directly, I'll post a copy. I'd rather they had the opportunity to decide what to do with it first.
I have put it back here:
http://www.newlisp.org/syntax.cgi?code/SentenceBoundary.lsp.txt
if you change (inc 'i) to (inc i) and use 'setf' on the lines where 'nth-set' is used, then it should work for version 10.
Now has been updated for newLISP v.10.0 :
http://www.newlisp.org/syntax.cgi?code/SentenceBoundary.lsp.txt
thanks to methodic fo correcting a typo, now at rev 2697:
http://www.newlisp.org/syntax.cgi?code/SentenceBoundary.lsp.txt
Are these lines correct?
(setf (word_list (- i 1) -1) (append (word_list (- i 1) -1) "."))
(setf (word_list (- i 1)) word_list (append (word_list (- i 1)) tmp))
They are a direct translation from the 'nth-set' statements with flat version 9.0 syntax.
It does a good job on wikipedia pages (corrected link):
(url-to-sentences "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grady_(band)" 15000)
but it bombs on your home page :-(. Perhaps Methodic can put some more work into it.
I think my version works:
(println (slice (url-to-sentences "http://unbalanced-parentheses.nfshost.com/" 10000) 0 20
("blog: unbalanced-parentheses" "about this blog" "atom newsfeed" "contact me" "twitters @ 12:25"
"#opensources newLISP 10.0.6: newLISP is a Lisp-like, general-purpose scripting language."
"It has al." "http://chilp.it/?76b031" "from OpenSources (Jacob Peacock)" "1 day and 20 hours ago"
"newLISP 10.0.6 - newLISP is a Lisp-like, general-purpose scripting language." "It has all the magic of traditional L. http://bit.ly/ZCc1L"
"from fmannounce (freshmeat announces)" "1 day and 22 hours ago" "Development release 10.0.6 features minor enhancements and bug fixes: http://www.newlisp.org/downloads/development/"
"from newlisp (newLISP)" "2 days and 17 hours ago" "@ghfischer Hey do you have a copy of the Sentence Boundary code? I can't find it on newlisp.org anymore."
"from m3thodic (tony)" "5 days and 12 hours ago")
I think your conversion to v10 has more errors than mine... :)
Can you post a link to the corrected version or post the critical correction?
The lines in my version that differ from yours are (according to BBEdit):
line 91: (if (not break_token) (set 'break_token ""))
line 176: (set 'word_list (map (fn(x) (parse x " ")) sentence_list))
line 212: (setf (word_list (- i 1)) (append (word_list (- i 1)) tmp))
line 215: (begin
(inc i)
)
I think line 212 is the culprit.
Thanks Cormullion, now I see the superfluous 'word_list' . A new version is posted:
http://www.newlisp.org/syntax.cgi?code/SentenceBoundary.lsp.txt
I think that version has a stray "syntax highlighting with newLISP and syntax.cgi" line near the end...
This file is definitely jinxed...!
I had to look that up:
jinxed
adj : (usually used colloquially) causing or accompanied by misfortune [syn: hexed]
definitely hexed :)
Just a quick post on a bug I found..
On line 180, GetSentences will fail if on the last argument if the sentence passed in has any whitespace in it; ie: "The brown fox jumped high. "
Adding a trim statement to any line before the parse will fix it. I'm sure it was written so that you pass the string through clean-html first, but for what I'm using it for I don't need that function.
Thanks again to everyone who helped make this 10.0 compliant! :)
Trim wasn't the issue after all... I _think_ I found the bug... sent Lutz a new file which he should be posting shortly. :)
You should probably change the Contact information in Sentence Boundary, as neither of these e-mail addresses work any longer. :)
