TLG to Unicode Converter 1.9

tlgu will convert an input_file from Thesaurus Linguae Graeca (TLG) and Packard Humanities Institute (PHI) representation to a Unicode (UTF-8) output_file which can then be read or searched using available pattern matching tools, like grep and awk. The TLG/PHI representation consists of "beta-code" text and citation information. The TLG / PHI and Epigraphical corpuses include the majority of classical Hellenic and Latin works and inscriptions. Several options are available, including splitting a file into works, hyphenation removal to re-join words and allow reformatting for reading the material, formatting of citation information.
