Hi,

I use LanguageTool in command-line for proof-reading long documents (whole
books) and I'd like to make this process easily available to more people
(without additional scripts). It could become a web service, but some
people doesn't want to send copyrighted material to a public webpage, and
sometimes files are too large.

This is the process:
1) The original document is converted to plain text, usually with Apache
Tika [1] or po2txt for translation memories. Several files can be processed
in a batch.
2) The plain text file is analyzed with LanguageTool in command-line, with
appropriate options.
3) The results are classified and presented in html.

Do you think these features could be added to the current stand-alone
LanguageTool application? Or should it be an independent application? The
main drawback probably is that the Tika library adds 28M. The ability to
load and save different configuration files would be a plus.

If that doesn't seem reasonable, could we at least add html results to LT
command-line as an option?

What do you think?

Regards,
Jaume Ortolà
