12 Verbiste is a library that can conjugate French verbs given in the
13 infinitive form and analyze conjugated French verbs. It is also a
14 GNOME Panel applet and a GNOME application.
15
16 There are two commands, named french-conjugator(1) and french-deconju‐
17 gator(1), which make the library's functionality available from the
18 command line and from scripts.
19
20 The GNOME application should be available under the GNOME Applications
21 menu, in the Accessories submenu. It can also be run from the command
22 line by typing verbiste. The GNOME Panel applet can be run from the
23 Add to Panel menu.
24
26 The library's source archive comes with Perl and Java example programs
27 that call the french-conjugator(1) and french-deconjugator(1) commands.
28 There are also example programs that use the C application programming
29 interface.
30
31 The library and the commands use verb and conjugation knowledge bases
32 that are represented as XML files that are installed with the library
33 (typically in /usr/share/verbiste-0.1).

52 The FrenchVerbDictionary object is not completely destroyed when its
53 destructor is called, in order to avoid the excessively long clean up
54 time of its internal trie. Only one instance of this class should be
55 created and it should be destroyed when the program quits.
56
57 Version 0.1.x is an unstable development version. The programming
58 interface of the library and the command-line options of the accompany‐
59 ing commands are not necessarily fixed.
