12 The open text summarizer is an open source tool for summarizing texts.
13 The program reads a text and decides which sentences are important and
14 which are not. OTS will create a short summary or will highlight the
15 main ideas in the text. OTS is both a library and a command line tool.
16 Word processors such as AbiWord and KWord can link to the library and
17 summarize documents while the command line tool lets you summarize text
18 on the console.
