Purpose

Synopsis

[-c <corpus>] [-f <fromsubdir>] | [-fd <fromdir>] [-tc <tocorpus>] [-t <tosubdir>] | [-td <targetdir>] [-l <nroflines>>] [-w <nrofwords> [-u]] [-x <maxnrofruns>] [-ps <partsubdir>] [-p <part>] | [-pd <partdir>] [-pf <divprtfile> [...]] [-dr] [-? = -h = -help = --help] [-v [<verboselvl>]]

-c

the corpus to work on

-f

the subdir in which the files to sample can be found (defaults to refined)

-fd

full path to the the files to sample from

-tc

the name the sample-corpus should have. If none is set the source corpus is used, so be alert to supply a suitable tosubdir then...

-t

the subdir in which the sample should be stored (defaults to refined)

-td

the the full path in which the sample should be stored (conflicts with -tc, and -t)

-m

the subdir in which the metafile should be stored (defaults to samplemeta)

-md

full path to the place where the metafile should be stored

-l

the number of lines you want your random sample to have

-w

the number of words you want in your random sample (if you ask both for a certain number of lines and for a certain number of words, it will randomizeuntill it has found a random set containing the requested number of lines and the requested number of words). It reports an error if the request cannot be fulfilled before max runs

-u

count punctuation as words

-x

the maximum number of runs before giving up

-ps

subdir in which the divisions are

-p

the name of a division to use as a part. The file-names in all the divprt -files in the division-dir are added and used as the list of files to use unless you specify one or more explicitly using the -pf option

-pd

full path to the division-dir to use as a part. This option causes the -p option to be ignored

-pf

one or more divprt files to use as the part instead of all files in the division

-dr

dry-run. Nothing is written or deleted, only reading and reporting is done

-v

the level of verbosity, default verboselevel = 2, available levels: 0,1,2,3

-?

If no dirs or levels are given the defaults in the config file are used
