NAME

hfst-lexc - =Compile lexc files into transducer

SYNOPSIS

hfst-lexc [ OPTIONS ...] [ INFILE1 ...]]

DESCRIPTION

Compile lexc files into transducer

Common options:

-h , --help

Print help message

-V , --version

Print version info

-v , --verbose

Print verbosely while processing

-q , --quiet

Only print fatal erros and requested output

-s , --silent

Alias of --quiet

Input/Output options:

-f , --format = FORMAT

compile into FORMAT transducer

-o , --output = OUTFILE

write result into OUTFILE

Lexc options:

-A , --alignStrings

align characters in input and output strings

-E , --encode-weights

encode weights when minimizing (default is false)

-F , --withFlags

use flags to hyperminimize result

-M , --minimizeFlags

if --withFlags is used, minimize the number of flags

-R , --renameFlags

if --withFlags and --minimizeFlags are used, rename flags (for testing)

-x , --xerox-composition = VALUE Whether flag diacritics are treated as
ordinary

symbols in composition (default is true).

-X , --xfst = VARIABLE

toggle xfst compatibility option VARIABLE.

-W , --Werror

treat warnings as errors

If INFILE or OUTFILE are omitted or -, standard streams will be used The possible values for FORMAT are { sfst, openfst-tropical, openfst-log, foma, optimized-lookup-unweighted, optimized-lookup-weighted }. VALUEs recognized are {true,ON,yes} and {false,OFF,no}. Xfst variables are {flag-is-epsilon (default OFF)}.

EXAMPLES

hfst-lexc -o cat.hfst cat.lexc

Compile single-file lexicon

hfst-lexc -o L.hfst Root.lexc 2.lexc 3.lexc

Compile multi-file lexicon

Using weights:

LEXICON Root cat # "weight: 2" ; Define weight for a word <[dog::1]+> # ; Use weights in regular expressions

Using weights has an effect only if FORMAT is weighted, i.e. { openfst-tropical, openfst-log, optimized-lookup-weighted }.
