It does "N-Gram-Based Text Categorization", eg for language guessing, "a task on which it is known to perform with near-perfect accuracy". Wonderful software. Also, for the more rule-based crowd, the machine translation system <a>Apertium</a> is all based on the command-line (the main program is just a short shell script calling each module of a language pair pipeline); as is the <a href="http://beta.visl.sdu.dk/constraint_grammar.html" rel="nofollow">vislcg3</a> Constraint Grammar parser.

He's released many of his NLP tools, as well as writes on the subject (and AI in general). David you should head on over to Mark Watson’s site.

It looks a bit stale (no release since 2004), but the list of packages seems to be an interesting resource. Thanks.

It's a Linux Live CD packed with NLP goodness. http://morphix-nlp.berlios.de/ -m It’s been a while since I’ve had to think about NLP tools, but when I did I found Morphix-NLP indispensable.
