Hej Per,
Fine code, most of us have made our own code at some point.
In Linux these tools are not that needed as there are powerfull tools like
sed and grep that makes text processing from command line easy enough.
WRT formatting and sorting, there is apertium-dixtools.
Its even mentioned in your dixes:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!--
Dictionary:
Sections: 3
Entries: 10140
Sdefs: 64
Paradigms: 341
* Last processed by: apertium-dixtools fix apertium-sv-da.da.dix x.dix
*
-->
You should try that out, and you might make an apertium-dixtools extension
that fits your needs.
dixtools is a monster program that reads (several) dixes into memory as
Java objects and lets you manipulate them and save them again. It remembers
formatting as well.
$ apertium-dixtools
Usage: apertium-dixtools [task] [generic options] [task parameters] ...
Tasks:
autorestrict: automatically adds restrictions on a bidix so no
ambiguity exitst
autoconcord: automatically makes gender, number etc in bidix concord
with the monodices
cross: cross 2 language pairs (using linguistic res. XML
file)
cross-param: cross 2 language pairs (using command line
parameters)
merge-morph: merges two morphological dictionaries (monodix)
equiv-paradigms: finds equivalent paradigms and updates references
list: lists entries in a dictionary
reverse-bil: reverses a bilingual dictionary
sort: sorts (and groups by category) a dictionary
format: formats a dictionary (according to Generic Options)
fix: fix a dictionary (remove duplicates, convert spaces)
For help on a task, invoke it without parameters
Generic options: (mostly for tasks that outputs dix files)
-debug print extra debugging information
-useTabs use tabs (instead of default 2 spaces) when indenting
-noProcComments don't add processing comments (telling what was
done)
-noHeader don't put header comment with a summary in the top
-stripEmptyLines removes empty lines (originating from original file)
-alignBidix align a bidix (<p> or <i> at col 10, <r> at col 55)
-alignMonodix align a monodix (pardef 10, 30, other entries 25,
45)
-align [[E] P R] custom align (default <p>/<i> at col 10, <r> at col
55)
-alignpardef [[E] P R] paradigm alignment (if differ from general align)
-noalign old, noncompact XML-ish output (one tag per line,
lots of indents)
If no -align option is specified, the alignment is autodetected
Use - as file name for piping (read/write .dix files on standard
input/output)
