Diction-PHP

(This is copied from the README within the project and may be out of date.)

This is a port and upgrade of the original GNU diction to PHP.

Major Changes From GNU Diction

• Ported to PHP
• Removed all C-isms and replaced them with equivalent (and simpler) PHP code
• Split functionality out into classes.
• Eliminated standalone functionality to make this a set of classes for text
  analysis, rather than a set of programs for the same.
• Cleaned up unused variables, renamed methods to reflect their purpose, etc.

Future Goals

• Fix any remaining inconsistencies between the original code and the PHP port
  (see tests directory)
• Port the diction functionality also.
• Allow all stages of the processing to be enhanced through PHP’s OO features.
• Re-format code into a standard PHP style
• Submit to PEAR.
