Hi, RudiC.
Quote:
Excellent! One question: Wouldn't "Twenty-second" require a trailing ordinal point / dot?
If I were doing the code, I think I'd add an option for suffixes, e.g. twenty-second -> 22nd for ordinals.
This code is available in repositories, as well as at
Lingua::EN::Words2Nums - convert English text to numbers - metacpan.org . It seems to be about 10 years old, but may be amenable to updates. I also didn't dig very deeply -- this seemed to work -- but there may be other modules, perl, python, etc., that can do the same.
A brief look at the module seems like much of the work is table-driven, so it may be just a bit of work to add another table to optionally add suffixes.
There are always things of interest that come up in searches at the repo at cpan.org.
Best wishes ... cheers, drl

gri_merge
GRI_MERGE(1) General Commands Manual GRI_MERGE(1)
NAME
gri_merge - merge multiple Gri output files into a single PostScript file.
USAGE (style 1):
gri_merge [OPTIONS] CxR a.ps b.ps ... > merged_file.ps
Merges the files onto one page, in 'C' columns and 'R' rows. The CxR files are given in the order of words on a page. The page is pre-
sumed to be 8.5x11in in size, as are all the input files, and the input files are sized to fit, and kept in natural scale.
USAGE (style 2):
gri_merge [OPTIONS] xcm ycm enlarge a.ps [b.ps ...] > merged_file.ps
Where `enlarge' is a scale factor applied after offsetting `xcm' to the right and `ycm' upward.
EXAMPLE (style 2):
The following
gri_merge 2 12 .5 a.ps
12 12 .5 b.ps
2 2 .5 c.ps
12 2 .5 d.ps > all.ps
produces 4 panels from gri plots done using margins and sizes as specified in the following lines in a gri commandfile
set x margin 2
set x size 15
set y margin 2
set y size 15
The OPTIONS, available if your 'perl' has 'getopts' library, are:
-u graylevel -- set graylevel for underlay beneath panels, by default 0.75.
Values range from 0 (black) to 1 (white), although a value of precisely 1 means do NOT draw underlay.
-b graylevel -- Set value for background under individual panels, again 0
for black to 1 for white, with 1 meaning no drawing.
-h -- Print this help message and quit.
