Important

Note 1: It is recommended that the path to Wordless not contain any non-ASCII chatacters, such as Chinese characters and letters with diacritics.

Note 2: If your Mac says that “Wordless” is damaged and can’t be opened, please open Terminal (Launchpad → Other) and run:

xattr -rc /Applications/Wordless.app

remember to replace /Applications/Wordless.app with the actual path of Wordless on your computer (you could drag Wordless.app to the Terminal). Then, run Wordless again (the warning prompted in Terminal could be ignored if the program could be successfully opened).

Note 3: While opening corpora in languages other than English in Wordless, extra model files might need to be downloaded from the internet. If you encounter a Network Error dialog while downloading the model, chances are that it's a literal network error, so you just need to check your internet connections following the instructions in the error message and try downloading the model once more.

Users in China, where connections to Github and Hugging Face Hub are unstable, are recommended to use a proxy and set properly the settings in Menu - Preferences - Settings - General - Proxy Settings. Alternatively, Chinese users can choose to manually download model files from Baidu Netdisk. The steps of installing models are as follows:

  1. Check the error message displayed in the Network Error dialog. If stanza is found in the error message, you need a Stanza model, otherwise you need a spaCy model.
  2. Download model files for the language of your corpus from the above link and extract all files.
  3. For Windows and Linux users, put spaCy models under Wordless/libs and Stanza models under Wordless/libs/stanza_resources. For macOS users, right click on Wordless.app, select Show Package Contents, then put spaCy models under Contents/Frameworks and Stanza models under Contents/Frameworks/stanza_resources.
  4. If your corpora are in different languages or both spaCy and Stanza models are required, repeat step 1 ~ 3 until the Network Error dialog disappears.
  5. Try opening corpora in Wordless again, the model downloading process should be skipped now.

If the problem persists or the model you need is missing from the above link, please contact the author for further support.
