NLTK-Java Interface Code

Copyright (C) 2001-2013 NLTK Project For license information, see LICENSE.TXT

The Java code in this directory is used by NLTK to communicate with external Java packages, such as Mallet. In particular, this directory defines several command-line interfaces that are used by NLTK to communicate with external Java packages, by spawning them as subprocesss. In cases where an external Java package already provides a command-line interface, teh replacement interface provided here is either more functional or more stable (or both).

These command-line interfaces may be called directly by users, but they are primarily intended for use by NLTK.
