| --help
| --version
DESCRIPTION
This script implements the backend of the web interface for
WordNet::Similarity.
This script listens to a port waiting for a request form similarity.cgi
or wps.cgi. The client script sends a message to this script as series
of queries (see QUERY FORMAT). After all the queries, the client sends
a message containing only CRLF (carriage-return line-feed, or
\015\012).
The server (this script) responds with the results (see MESSAGE FORMAT)
terminated by a message containing only CRLF.
Example:
Client:
g car#n#1CRLF
CRLF
Sever responds:
g car#n#1 4-wheeled motor vehicle; usually propelled by an internal
combustion engine; "he needs a car to get to work"CRLF
CRLF
OPTIONS
--port=PORTNUMBER
Specify the port PORTNUMBER for the server to listen on.
--logfile=LOGFILE

written out.
--maxchild=NUM
Specify the maximum number NUM of the processes that should be
forked
to handle the requests.
--stoplist=STOPFILE
A file STOPFILE of stop words to be provided to the lesk and vector
modules.
--help
Display the help message and quit.
--version
Display the version information and quit.
QUERY FORMAT
<CRLF> means carriage-return line-feed "\r\n" on Unix, "\n\r" on Macs,
\015\012 everywhere and anywhere (i.e., don't use \n or \r, use
\015\012).
The queries consist of messages in the following formats:
s <word1> <word2><CRLF> - server will return all senses of word1 and
word2
g <word><CRLF> - server will return the gloss for each synset to which
word belongs
r <wps1> <wps2> <measure> <etc...><CRLF> - server will return the
relatedness of wps1 and wps2 using measure.
v <CRLF> - get version information
MESSAGE FORMAT
The messages sent from this server will be in the following formats:
! <msg><CRLF> - indicates an error or warning
g <wps> <gloss><CRLF> - the gloss of wps
r <wps1> <wps2> <score><CRFL> - the relatedness score of wps1 and wps2
t <msg><CRLF> - the trace output for the previous relatedness score
s <wps1> <wps2> ... <wpsN><CRLF> - a synset
v <package> <version number><CRLF> - the version of 'package' being used
