.SH NAME
mmseg \- maximum matching segment Chinese text.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
\&\fBmmseg\fR \-d \fIdict_file\fR [\fIoption\fR]... [\fIcorpus_file\fR]...
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBmmseg\fR is a tool for segmenting Chinese text into words using maximum matching algorithm. \fBmmseg\fR segments \fIcorpus_file\fR, or standard input if no filename is specified, and write the segmented result to standard output.
.SH OPTIONS
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
.IP "\fB\-d\fR \fIdict_file\fR" 4
.IX Item "-d dict_file"
Use \fIdict_file\fR as lexicon. A default lexicon can be found at \fI/usr/share/sunpinyin\-slm/dict.utf8\fR.
.IP "\fB\-f\fR,\fB\-\-format\fR (\fBtext\fR|\fBbin\fR)" 4
.IX Item "-f,--format (text|bin)"
Output Format, can be 'text' or 'bin'. default 'bin'.
Normally, in text mode, word text are output, while in binary mode,
binary short integer of the word-ids are written to stdout.
.IP "\fB\-s\fR, \fB\-\-stok\fR \fISTOK_ID\fR" 4
.IX Item "-s, --stok STOK_ID"
Sentence token id. Default 10.
It will be written to output in binary mode after every sentence.
.IP "\fB\-i\fR, \fB\-\-show\-id\fR" 4
.IX Item "-i, --show-id"
Show Id info. Under text output format mode, attach id after known words. 
If under binary mode, print id(s) in text.
.IP "\fB\-a\fR, \fB\-\-ambiguious\-id\fR \fIAMBI-ID\fR" 4
.IX Item "-a, --ambiguious-id AMBI-ID"
Ambiguious means \fIABC\fR => \fIA\fR \fIBC\fR or \fIAB\fR \fIC\fR. If specified (\fIAMBI-ID\fR != 0), 
The sequence \fIABC\fR will not be segmented, in binary mode, the \fIAMBI-ID\fR is written out; in text mode, \f(CW\*(C`<ambi>ABC</ambi>\*(C'\fR will be output. Default is 0.
.SH NOTES
.IX Header "NOTES"
Under \fBbinary\fR mode, consecutive id of 0 are merged into one 0.
Under \fBtext\fR mode, no space are inserted between unknown-words.
