NAME

       voikkogc - test program for Voikko grammar checker

SYNOPSIS

       voikkogc [options]

DESCRIPTION

       voikkogc is a test program for grammar checking functionality in libvoikko, library of Finnish language tools.  It reads sentences or para-
       graphs from stdin (one per line) and print the results to stdout.  The results are structures containing information about  grammar  errors
       found in the input paragraph.

OPTIONS

       --tokenize
	      Instead  of looking for grammar errors, split input into tokens. The tokens are prefixed by type: "W" is a word, "P" is punctuation,
	      "S" is whitespace, "U" is unknown and "E" is a prefix for error messages.

       --split-sentences
	      Instead of looking for grammar errors, split input into sentences. The sentences are prefixed by type: "B" means that  end  of  sen-
	      tence  is  a  probably correct, "P" means that end of sentence is a possibly correct (but probably this and the next identified sen-
	      tence should be joined) and "E" means that sentence ends at the end of input.

       -n     Prefix all grammar checker messages with line number of input data.

       accept_titles=n

       accept_unfinished_paragraphs=n

       accept_bulleted_lists=n
	      Set the value of the specified boolean option.

       explanation_language=langcode
	      Print human readable error explanation in the specified language.

BUGS

       Human readable error explanations are printed in UTF-8 regardless of current locale settings.
