Make patterns match multiple words

Reported by Will | January 5th, 2009 @ 01:39 PM | in 0.7

Patterns don't currently match multiple word sequences, but they should.

They should also provide correct proportions in reports, e.g. if the pattern "A B" matches once in a document 10 words long then the proportion is 1/5 not 1/10

    Patterns now match multiple words. The reporting has not yet been updated. Case-insensitive matching now works for non-ascii characters too (in RC4).

    Trying to figure out how to normalize reports with multi-word patterns has reminded me that I need to rethink the reporting structure.

    I conclude that things should probably be expressed as rates rather than proportions and reported accordingly.

    On the one hand this is all now implemented (proportions, rates, or raw counts). On the other, it's not going to be ready for the 31st.

    Fixed in the next iteration of 07 (not released yet though).

    Hi Will - am using Yoshikoder for Mac but when I apply the dictionary it doesn't appear to be recording multiple-words terms (e.g. 'national interest', 'United States'). Could you please inform me how to use Yoshikoder to count instances of multiple-word terms?
