=head1 NAME

Squeeze.pm - Shorten text to minimum syllables by using hash table lookup and vowel deletion

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Squeeze.pm;         # import only function
    use Squeeze qw( :ALL ); # import all functions and variables
    use English;            # to use readable variable names

    while (<>)
    {
        print "Original: $ARG\n";
        print "Squeezed: ", SqueezeText lc $ARG;
    }

    #  Or you can use object oriented interface

    $squeeze = new Lingua::EN::Squeeze;

    while (<>)
    {
        print "Original: $ARG\n";
        print "Squeezed: ", $squeeze->SqueezeText(lc $ARG);
    }

=head1 VERSION

This document describes version 2015.01

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Squeeze english text to most compact format possible so that it is barely
readable. Be sure to convert all text to lowercase before using the
SqueezeText() for maximum compression, because optimizations have been
designed mostly for uncapitalized letters.

C<Warning: Each line is processed multiple times, so prepare for slow
conversion time>

You can use this module e.g. to preprocess text before it is sent to
electronic media that has some maximum text size limit. For example pagers
have an arbitrary text size limit, typically around 200 characters, which
you want to fill as much as possible. Alternatively you may have GSM
cellular phone which is capable of receiving Short Messages (SMS), whose
message size limit is 160 characters. For demonstration of this module's
SqueezeText() function, this paragraph's conversion result is presented
below. See yourself if it's readable (Yes, it takes some time to get used
to). The compression ratio is typically 30-40%

The comparision of these two show

    Original text   : 627 characters

    Level 1         : 345 characters    reduction 45 %  (+14% improvement)

There are few grammar rules which are used to shorten some English
tokens considerably:

    Word that has _ is usually a verb

    Word that has / is usually a substantive, noun,
                    pronomine or other non-verb

Read following substituting tokens in order to understand the basics of
converted text. Hopefully, the text is not pure Geek code (tm) to you after
some practice. In Geek code (Like G++L--J) you would need an external
parser to understand it. Here some common sense and time is needed to adapt
oneself to the compressed format. I<For a complete up to date list, you
would be better off peeking the source code>

    phone         => P8

=head1 EXAMPLES

To add new words e.g. to word conversion hash table, you'd define a custom
set and merge them to existing ones. Do similarly to
C<%SQZ_WXLATE_MULTI_HASH> and C<$SQZ_ZAP_REGEXP> and then start using the
conversion function.

    use English;
    use Squeeze qw( :ALL );

    my %myExtraWordHash =
    (
          new-word1  => 'conversion1'
        , new-word2  => 'conversion2'
        , new-word3  => 'conversion3'
        , new-word4  => 'conversion4'
    );

    #   First take the existing tables and merge them with the above
    #   translation table

    my %mySustomWordHash =
    (
          %SQZ_WXLATE_HASH
        , %SQZ_WXLATE_EXTRA_HASH
        , %myExtraWordHash
    );

    my $myXlat = 0;                             # state flag

    while (<>)
    {
        if ( $condition )
        {
            SqueezeHashSet \%mySustomWordHash;  # Use MY conversions
            $myXlat = 1;
        }

        if ( $myXlat and $condition )
        {
            SqueezeHashSet "reset";             # Back to default table
            $myXlat = 0;
        }

        print SqueezeText $ARG;
    }

Similarly you can redefine the multi word translation table by supplying
another hash reference in call to SqueezeHashSet(). To kill more text
immediately in addition to default, just concatenate regexps to variable
I<$SQZ_ZAP_REGEXP>

=head1 KNOWN BUGS

There may be lot of false conversions and if you think that some word
squeezing went too far, please 1) turn on the debug 2) send you example
text 3) debug log log to the maintainer. To see how the conversion goes
e.g. for word I<Messages>:

    use English;
    use Lingua::EN:Squeeze;

    #   Activate debug when case-insensitive word "Messages" is found from
    #   the line.

    SqueezeDebug( 1, '(?i)Messages' );

    $ARG = "This line has some Messages in it";
    print SqueezeText $ARG;

=head1 EXPORTABLE VARIABLES

The defaults may not apply to all types of text, so you may wish to extend
the hash tables and I<$SQZ_ZAP_REGEXP> to cope with your typical text.

=head2 $SQZ_ZAP_REGEXP

Text to kill immediately, like "Hm, Hi, Hello..." You can only set this
once, because this regexp is compiled immediately when C<SqueezeText()> is
called for the first time.

=head2 $SQZ_OPTIMIZE_LEVEL

This controls how optimized the text will be. Currently there is only level
0 (default) and level 1. Level 1 removes all spaces. That usually improves
compression by average of 10%, but the text is more harder to read. If
space is real tight, use this extended compression optimization.

=head2 %SQZ_WXLATE_MULTI_HASH

I<Multi Word> conversion hash table:  "for you" => "4u" ...

=head2 %SQZ_WXLATE_HASH

I<Single Word> conversion hash table: word => conversion. This table is applied
after C<%SQZ_WXLATE_MULTI_HASH> has been used.

=head2 %SQZ_WXLATE_EXTRA_HASH

Aggressive I<Single Word> conversions like: without => w/o are applied last.
