26 describe the formats of the various files included in different WordNet
27 3.0 packages.

30 All files are in ASCII. Fields are generally separated by one space,
31 unless otherwise noted, and each line is terminated with a newline
32 character. In the file format descriptions, terms in italics refer to
33 field names. Characters or strings in boldface represent an actual
34 character or string as it appears in the file. Items enclosed in ital‐
35 icized square brackets ([ ]) may not be present. Since several files
36 contain fields that have the identical meaning, field names are consis‐
37 tently defined. For example, several WordNet files contain one or more
38 synset_offset fields. In each case, the definition of synset_offset is
39 identical.
