Text::Thesaurus::ISO ==================== Jon Knight Martin Hamilton Introduction ------------ This module is intended to support the using of ISO thesaurus files from Perl scripts. It allows rapid access to individual thesaurus records based on the terms that they cover and also provides routines to allow individual items in the thesaurus record to be retrieved. This code has been developed as part of the ROADS project but is being made available separately as it is felt that it may be more widely applicable. Installation ------------ Retrieve the latest release from one of the archive sites worldwide or from and uncompress/untar the resulting file using: unzip -c Text-Thesaurus-ISO.latest.tar.gz | tar xvf - This will create a directory called Text-Thesaurus-ISO-x.y, where "x.y" is the version number of the release. Change to this directory and you install the module by running these commands: perl Makefile.PL make make install Please report any bugs/suggestions to Usage ----- The module contains a complete POD set embedded in the code. This can be processed with any of the normal POD processing tools, for example: perldoc Text::Thesaurus::ISO Blurb ----- Copyright (c) 1998, Martin Hamilton and Jon Knight. All rights reserved.
