Question

I’m trying to run a Perl script “conlleval,pl” on a datasets.txt . I’ve installed Active perl under windows 7 64bit. also, I’ve got no background in Perl,this the first time.

• Question: what is the correct command line to execute the script with the data set from the command line? and how to save the result in a “output.txt”?

Is this the correct way?

c:>Perl conllevall.pl < dataset.txt < output.txt

Note: the script and data set is in the same location, I think it is a path problem.- I’ve tried many tutorials but with no luck.I couldn’t find any examples 🙁

Answer 1

If you read from STDIN (using <> construct), the simplest would be

perl conllevall.pl dataset.txt > output.txt

by associating .pl extension to perl, also

conllevall.pl dataset.txt > output.txt

should work.
