=compose two transducers

Usage

hfst-compose [OPTIONS ...] [INFILE1 [INFILE2]]

Overview

Compose two transducers

Common options:

-h, --help

Print help message

-V, --version

Print version info

-v, --verbose

Print verbosely while processing

-q, --quiet

Only print fatal erros and requested output

-s, --silent

Alias of --quiet

Input/Output options:

-1, --input1=INFILE1

Read first input transducer from INFILE1

-2, --input2=INFILE2

Read second input transducer from INFILE2

-C, --do-not-convert

Do not allow transducers to be converted into the same type

-o, --output=OUTFILE

Write results to OUTFILE

Composition options:

-x, --xerox-composition=VALUE Whether flag diacritics are treated as ordinary

symbols in composition (default is false).

-X, --xfst=VARIABLE

Toggle xfst compatibility option VARIABLE.

Harmonization:

-H, --do-not-harmonize Do not harmonize symbols.

-F, --harmonize-flags

Harmonize flag diacritics.

If OUTFILE, or either INFILE1 or INFILE2 is missing or -, standard streams will be used. INFILE1, INFILE2, or both, must be specified. Format of result depends on format of INFILE1 and INFILE2; both should have the same format.

The operation is applied pairwise for INFILE1 and INFILE2 that must have the same number of transducers. If INFILE2 has only one transducer, the operation is applied for each transducer in INFILE1 keeping the second transducer constant.

Xfst variables are {flag-is-epsilon (default OFF)}. VALUE can be one of the following: [true|false], [yes|no] or [ON|OFF], false being the default.
