I'm looking for tools for generating random but realistic text. I've implemented a Markov Chain text generator myself and while the results were promising, my attempts at improving them haven't yielded any great successes. I'd be happy with tools that consume a corpus or that operate based on a context-sensitive or context-free grammar...
currently, if I make a page object of a pdf page with pyPdf, and extractText(), what happens is that lines are concatenated together. For example, if line 1 of the page says "hello" and line 2 says "world" the resulting text returned from extractText() is "helloworld" instead of "hello world." Does anyone know how to fix this, or have su...
I have a requirement to display text at a 45 degree angle in the browser. The text is selected via ajax calls from a selection of a lot of values. Text varies in length up to 100 characters. Need to display the first part and the last few characters (I can figure this part out). For example: "This is the text and it can be quite long......

Hi. Does anyone know, how to, in iText, add multiline text in bounding box (with coordinates specified). I tried cb.showTextAligned(PdfContentByte.ALIGN_LEFT, text, bounds.getLeft(), TOTAL_HEIGHT-bounds.getTop(), 0); But it does not support newlines. I also tried PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContent(); cb.moveText(300,40...

If you have two textareas, one has a rotation value besides 0 and the other has no rotation value or a value of 0 and you 'tab' focus from the one w/rotation to the one w/out. The border around the textArea w/out rotation will be rotated. If you set the rotation value of the non-rotated text field to a non-zero number, even 0.01, it fi...
I have a textarea where people can write comments and click a button to post them. The processing is done with AJAX and so I want that as long as the server is processing the user request (and after too), the button and textarea will be blocked for editing/writing/clicking. It's very similar to how comments on Youtube videos work. Do y...
in vi, search and replace, how do you escape a '/' (forward slash) so that it is correct. Say in a path. like: /Users/tom/documents/pdfs/ :%s//Users/tom/documents/pdfs//<new text>/g --FAILS (obviously) :%s/\/Users/tom/documents/pdfs\//<new text>/g -- FAILS with a trailing error :%s/'/Users/tom/documents/pdfs/'/<new text>/g -- FAILS ...
Hi, I'm looking to compare two documents to determine what percentage of their text matches based on keywords. To do this I could easily chop them into a set word of sanitised words and compare, but I would like something a bit smarter, something that can match words based on their root, ie. even if their tense or plurality is differen...

Hello! I want to load a text box in Java from a text file. This sounds simple but the big question is how to return at the end add newlines when text get close to the edge of the box, for example. | | | Java java java Java java java |Java java java...
I have trouble where, for some reason, SVN would only merge the newly generated template code to implemented code (thus overwriting whatever I had done), but not the other way around. For example, 1) I generate a file called SomeFile.java. I commit this to trunk. I also branch this to feat1/SomeFile.java 2) I work off of the feat1/Som...

I love to eat chicken. Today I went running, swimming and played basketball. My objective is to return FOOD and SPORTS just by analyzing these two sentences. How can you do that? I am familiar with NLP and Wordnet. But is there something more high-level/practical/modern technology?? Is there anything that automatically categorizes w...
For example... Chicken is an animal. Burrito is a food. WordNet allows you to do "is-a"...the hiearchy feature. However, how do I know when to stop travelling up the tree? I want a LEVEL. That is consistent. For example, if presented with a bunch of words, I want wordNet to categorize all of them, but at a certain level, so it doesn'...
Hi I have managed to put text in a file by separating them by blank lines. I am trying to keep only those paragraphs that have a particular string. Though the Sed FAQ mentions a solution it does not work (see examples below) http://www.catonmat.net/blog/sed-one-liners-explained-part-two/ 58. Print a paragraph that contains “AAA”. (P...
