TM-Ontology-KIF =============== This package provides a simplistic (but slow) parser for the KIF (knowledge interchange format). I have no idea how complete this implementation is as I am mainly interested in converting the KIF version of SUMO (Suggested Upper Merged Ontology) into TopicMaps. INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install HOW TO USE The TM::Ontology::KIF package only provides a parser for KIF (or a subset of it). It will read a stream provided and will invoke a subroutine whenever it has successfully parsed a KIF sentence. Applications are supposed to provide this function. In the bin directory there is a utility which converts a KIF stream into an AsTMa= instance. Invoke it with kif2atm --help for more information. The example directory contains a Makefile with some suggested use. CAVEATS Please read the man page of TM::Ontology::KIF. TODO Support all of KIF. Something for long winter evenings. And more speed.
