Link Grammar

Given a sentence, the system assigns to it a syntactic structure, which consists of a set of labeled links connecting pairs of words. The parser also produces a "constituent" representation of a sentence (showing noun phrases, verb phrases, etc.). We have made the entire system available for download on the web. The system is written in generic C code, and runs on any platform with a C compiler. There is an application program interface (API) to make it easy to incorporate the parser into other applications.

Spelling There are several ways to spell check text and files on Linux; the following recipes show how to find the correct spellings of particular words and how to perform batch, interactive, and Emacs-based spell checks.
