thank you for your how to. i have one problem :

~/okb-engine/db $ sh build.sh de
build.sh: 5: set: Illegal option -o pipefail


PS: if i want check this:
echo $VARIABLE_NAME

i get no list.

@ferlanero, it is better to direct people to http://git.tuxfamily.org/okboard/okb...tree/README.md directly. Like I said before you cannot use a dictionary as corpus, it does not work, since it needs to be running texts with actual sentences, a lot of sentences, like explained in the README.md.

Then your shell does not support this option. There are some workarounds if your shell is dash, but if you have bash installed use that explicitly.

Then the variable is not set. It (VARIABLE_NAME) should btw be one of the two variables CORPUS_DIR or WORK_DIR. But if they are not set the script will tell you.

Yes I know, that would be the perfect choice, but that http://git.tuxfamily.org/okboard/okb...tree/README.md is hard to understand for human beings and I prefer to open a discussion here in order to create a forum where we can ask our doubts for each step. For example, I don't know where to look for the sentences you speak about, so maybe someone could give me some clue about it...

If you only point people to that http://git.tuxfamily.org/okboard/okb...tree/README.md and people don't understand it, we stuck for ever at the same point.

Thus perhaps among all of us here would be able to create a "how to" that anyone could understand. I think that this is the correct way to increase the support of much more OKBoard languages than the only 3 it stucks for 3 weeks. Do you understand me?

Quoting a message one page ago (http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=158), emphasis mine:

To train the model you need to feed it with a huge volume of text. The text should be representative of the kind of text you will type.
For example is you use a Wikipedia corpus, the keyboard will be very uncooperative if you try to type informal text that would look unnatural in a Wikipedia article.

Building language files is not just a matter of pouring random text in the build tool or you will end up with a high error rate.
I recommend using a lot of text (my French corpus is over 40 million words, and in some cases this is not enough), and using different kind of documents: articles (new / wikipedia), e-mail, IRC and chat logs ...

I already have read the entire thread of the post and already have read the form we have to look for, but where to find it? I dont think the author would make it manually in the case of more than 40 million words

And other error.

If I do like the author writes in http://git.tuxfamily.org/okboard/okb...tree/README.md

### How to distribute language files
You have several options for distributing language files (`$LANG.tre`, `predict-$LANG.ng`, `predict-$LANG.db`):
* Just copy them to any Jolla device in `~/.local/share/okboard/`. When you switch language on the keyboard, new files will be avalable. No need to restart the keyboard.
When I activate OKBoard, the program automatically deletes the files (`$LANG.tre`, `predict-$LANG.ng`, `predict-$LANG.db`) in my case (`es.tre`, `predict-es.ng`, `predict-es.db`) form `~/.local/share/okboard/`

So maybe the README.md needs more support...

Yes, that instruction should be removed. But for the language resource creation steps above that I already submitted a patch which made the process smoother to follow. Recreating major parts of the documentation in single entries here is not the way to do it.
We now found out your big problem, the question could be formulated like this: "How do I create a text corpus of my language of choice?"
Answer: You collect texts in Spanish according to any of the tutorials on the subject.
Alternative answer: You download texts of the types you highlighted, wikipedia dump, blog dumps, irc log dumps, sms conversation dumps etc. You then paste all texts together and remove all non-ascii/non-latin1 characters (e g with iconv, python, perl or other commandline tool) and follow the processing instructions in the README.md file.

If you find further problems, formulate a minimal example of where you get stuck. Don't speculate - just put it in a simple question form here. There might be a term for what you want to achieve. Wait with writing a new tutorial unless you find a totally unexplored area where a simple search on the web gives you nothing to link to.

Ok. Thanks for the info. Now I can figure how OKBoard is working with the corpus files. But my question remain: Why OKBoard deletes the `es.tre`, `predict-es.ng`, `predict-es.db` files that I copy into `~/.local/share/okboard/` in Sailfish OS to test if it works, while in the creation process "db/build.sh es" doesn't give any errors?

Here is my log:
These two are completely independent things. I e the creation of the language resources and running the engine and keyboard, so no need for the log. There simply seems to be an asymmetry in the runtime setup when using the default language resources (en, fr, nl) and others, the latter are completely restored each time and this equals to removal if there are no files to restore for that language.
It should probably by symmetrical behavior, but you can argue for both behaviors. The language resource developer can easily make the extra steps of putting the resources in /usr/share/okboard/, while the end user will probably want any new resources installed to be used rather than the old one in ~/.local/share/okboard/. But a simple test if there are no resources for the language installed in /usr/share/okboard/ one just keep the local one will probably be good, but would add to complexity.
