HTML::Summary ============= Description ----------- The HTML::Summary module produces summaries from the textual content of web pages. It does so using the location heuristic, which determines the value of a given sentence based on its position and status within the document; for example, headings, section titles and opening paragraph sentences may be favoured over other textual content. A LENGTH option can be used to restrict the length of the summary produced. This distribution contains the HTML::Summary module, and some supporting modules. The full list of modules is: HTML::Summary Text::Sentence Lingua::JA::Jcode Lingua::JA::Jtruncate I have bundled these modules together because this is an early release, and I am still open to suggestions on changes to the structure / interface. The HTML::Summary module provides the ability to generate summaries of HTML pages. Copyright --------- Copyright (c) 1997 Canon Research Centre Europe (CRE). All rights reserved.
