"Cloning" a corpus in NLTK?
Why don't you a define a new corpus by copying the definition of movie_reviews in nltk.corpus? You can do this all you want with new directories, and then copy the directory structure and replace the files.
I'm attempting to create my own corpus in NLTK. I've been reading some of the documentation on this and it seems rather complicated... all I wanted to do is "clone" the movie reviews corpus but with my own text. Now, I know I can just change files in the move reviews corpus to my own... but that limits me to working with just one such corpus at a time (ie. I'd have to continually be swapping files). is there any way i could just clone the movie reviews corpus?
thanks
