CA : Language Identifier - Xerox XRCE

On-line demo of Xerox's language identifier (commercial) 47 languages, not terribly actively maintained. I believe this was originally created by one of their Finnish researchers in XRCE Grenoble once upon a time ... I also got the impression that this one was the first to make a conscious effort at supporting different character set encodings. Fun Observation: the Danish sample Sentence uses ancient German-Style Capitalization Rules (-: ... and the Norwegian is (predictably) unlabelled, although I believe it's BokmÃ¥l. And it's incorrectly punctuated.

mguesser: language guesser (mnoGoSearch.org)

C reimplementation of TextCat, open source More solid language models than TextCat, and they use a similar format, so you can use the mguesser models with TextCat and vice versa. It's written in C, so it's faster, too. The web page is hideous, but the tool is good. This is available as a Debian package as well. See also

IBM Linguini: Globalizing your e-business

Vector-space -based language identification (commercial) There's a link there to a paper which was also published at the 32nd Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (1999) -- I'll try to find that and submit to CiteSeer too. The vector-space cosine distance measure makes more theoretical sense to me than the others I've seen, but I haven't had the time to compare their performance head-to-head.

The Regex Coach - interactive regular expressions

A Windows/Linux/Mac GUI tool for playing around with regular expressions I believe something similar is in the ActiveState Perl IDE, the regex instrumentation part being written by Mark-Jason Dominus. He wrote an article or two about it, too -- I'll try to find it. Update: Turns out there's even a link to it from this very page.

Using html2ps

How to print out an entire web site This manual failed to tell me that the (in retrospect glaringly obvious) command html2ps -Wb http://path.to/site/start/index.html >/tmp/out.ps will dump an entire document tree into a single PostScript file. Don't do this at home without checking how many pages exactly you ended up with before sending it off to the printer! (Duhh.)
