Thank you very much Marwen, Tom & Barry! This has been a great help. :)
Few more questions though, I'm planning to make two ways translation system,
and after reading
this http://www.statmt.org/moses/?n=Moses.AdvancedFeatures#ntoc21 I believe it
can be done by changing the configuration in the moses.ini and send the system
parameter in the xml-rpc, right? But what is the syntax to do it?
I'm actually feeling bad wasting your time answering my trivial question. Is
there any documentation regarding how to use the moses server that I can use?
Thanks

Excellent Marwen. Thank you.
Simon, be aware that your xmlrpc client is responsible for pre-processing the
text before sending to mosesserver via xmlrpc, and for post-processing
(detokenize/recase) the results.
Also, depending on the nature of your text, you may need change your pre-and
post-processing routines. For example, you'll need to escape xml-style
placeables before sending them via xmlrpc. In these cases, you'll also need to
re-train your translation model with a corpus prepared in the same manner.
I also believe
here was a report a while back that the --xml-input flag with mosesserver has
some limits. Is this still true?
