Hi Andrew,

I was adding the WER scorer I implemented in my old version of Moses to 
a fresh, up-to-date version of Moses and it seems that WER has already 
been added to Moses. There is a translation scorer (CDER) that can also 
compute WER. This is good news for you.

To run MERT using WER (1-WER, actually) you just need to add 
--mertargs="\"--sctype WER\"" in the command line.

Cheers
