In tm.plugin.alceste: Import texts from files in the Alceste format using the tm text mining framework

Description

This package provides a tm Source to create corpora from files formatted in the format used by the Alceste application.

Details

Typical usage is to create a corpus from an Alceste file prepared manually (here called myAlcesteCorpus.txt). Frequently, it is necessary to specify the encoding of the texts via link{AlcesteSource}'s encoding argument.

    # Import corpus
    source <- europresseSource("myAlcesteCorpus.txt")
    corpus <- Corpus(source)

    # See how many articles were imported
    corpus

    # See the contents of the first article and its meta-data
    inspect(corpus[1])
    meta(corpus[[1]])
  

See link{AlcesteSource} for more details and real examples.
