# Parallel Corpus Search This is a small set of python scripts that allows to search a parallel corpus. The basic prerequisite is that the data must be available in an aligned form. This means that the parallel corpus files must be in different subdirectories and there each file name has a replica in the other language. In addition each line in the one language has a representation in the other file. For its UI the program uses QT and PyQt4 so you have to install it first. For Mac and Linux download the Qt framework libraries from http://www.qtsoftware.com/downloads Afterwards you will need to build and install the PyQt4 Wrapper from http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/pyqt/download Using Windows is much simpler, just install Python first http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6.2/python-2.6.2.msi and than http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/static/Downloads/PyQt4/PyQt-Py2.6-gpl-4.5.2-1.exe and be happy. # Running the Program Execute paracorpus.pyw
