GoogleHack::Text
use GoogleHack::Text; my $search = GoogleHack::Text->new(); #create an object of type Text %results=$search->getWords("file location"); # returns an hash words
%results=$search->getSentences("file location", 3); # returns an hash of 3 word sentences
%results=$search->readConfig("file name") # this function reads a #configuration file
%results=$search->removeHTML("string") #removes HTML tags %results=$search->removeHTML("string") #removes XML tags
This is a simple Text processing package which aids GoogleHack and Rate modules. Given a file of words, it retreives the words in the file and stores it in a simple hash format. In addition, given a file of text, it can also form n word sentences.
