   Nicolas - Non-Inteligent COmputerised LAnguage System

(Ok. So it's a dodgy acronym  :-)


     SMALL UPDATE
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a replacement to the archive uploaded a couple of days ago
under the same name.

The previous archive was missing the library required to run the
program, which not everyone has, so here it is with a the lib,
and some simple instructions in installation (haha) which weren't
in the previous version either.

If you downloaded the previous archive and it worked for you, you
can ignore this one.




     ---------------




This little program is an experiment with Artificial Inteligence.
Actually, it's about as inteligent as a packet of liquorice alsorts,
but don't let that put you off.  It's still great fun to play around
with for a while.

It's concept is to learn the links between words, and use those to
output a meaningful sentence.  So, if you wrote "I like cats", it
would remember that cats can be liked, and sometime in the future
it would output a sentence about someone liking cats.   Maybe.

There's a small built in dictionary to get you started, and I've been
kind enough to also include a bigger saved dictionary in the archive.
If you don't like my choice of vocabulary, simply enter your own.  :-)


Bottom line:  This program is for *FUN*... so enjoy it!!!!!!
