this just in! I've been playing around with rewriting this thing in Cocoa, and now I have up the test-run of it as an OS X commandline program. I'm experimenting with a couple ideas for it in my spare time... extending functionality; trying to get it to generate sentences that make more "sense". Expanding the dictionary.
I'll also put up the source code, in a bit.
Yeah, the CGI script is down indefinitely. I may be able to get my server to run GCL, but I haven't gotten around to trying.
The idea is that this is lisp code that generates syntactic (grammatical?) sentences based what I understand of Noam Chomsky's theories of generative / transformational grammar. It's turned into a butterfly, now.
I have found that error (it's just that the memory setup for the DOS CLisp is a little low & I kept getting stack overflows. (well, that's what I think it is) - it works on both linux lisps, though)
Alright the new code is up.. I'm working on a major re-haul with deep sentence structure and that'll be v1.0, the current is .9 (.009)
I'm pretty much stuck on calling it, until l I think of something better, Stochastic Orpheus.
It is a complete package, now: still minimal, but functional.
for those of you running under DOS or Windows, there's links to an implementation of CLisp for DOS, as well as a couple GNU utilities for DOS.
| orpheus.tar.gz v9 | (CLisp for DOS page down. I'll try & find another.) |
|
GNU DOS utilities includes tar, gzip | |
| orpheus_cocoa.tar.gz | roughly the same program, rewritten in Cocoa as an OS X commandline "tool" |
below, some [new] additions. To the left, my program implemented as a CGI script using GCL; to the right some addt'l links suggested to me by a certain Aurelien to some other lisp or lisp-like languages.
also, a link to the code minimally formatted as HTML.
