hi hiroshi

i've installed installed moses using your macports package on macosx 
10.7.5. Everything works fine.

Thanks for that, i think it will be a very useful tool.

Do you know if there is a giza++, or better still mgiza, macport 
package? Moses is dependent on an alignment tool for training.

thanks
hieu
