The incredibly basic front-end of my dreams has been integrated with my back-end logic. I might remember to post screenshots or a bitty demo vid soon. Actually, I definitely want to do that, please don't let me forget to! Also, I have cleaned up an outstanding issues on the back-end where nltk did not appear able to recognize non-ascii value representations of unicode general punctuation characters.
Right now, I have solved this by checking all of the characters in the input and replacing all characters with unicode values higher than 127 with an equivalent sub 127 character or ignoring the character if no replacement has been given. It's not a particularly eloquent solution, but it has been working for the few test documents I have used. For now, I would prefer to move onto creating the back-end database, nailing down a concrete testing process, establishing testing benchmarks, and getting started with more serious testing. Then I can worry about which parts of the code are most in need of revision and what's worth getting done before the first release.
For now, time to get down with trying to integrate a MySQL database (or similar) with the app.
