Scorpion is an application built on top of Gwen and a Pears database that 
will classify a web page according to the classification data in the
database.

Scorpion is dependent on classes from the Pears distribution, the Gwen 
distribution and the Dbutils distribution. These can be found at 
http://purl.org/oclc/research/software

Quick Test Instructions: 

1) Make sure the following scripts' sh-bang lines point to bash on your 
   system. Executing 'which bash' will tell you where it is.
   The defaults are shown in parentheses.
	-) scorpion/setup.sh                     (#!/bin/bash)
	-) scorpion/PDB/LCC/test.sh              (#!/bin/bash)
	-) scorpion/PDB/LCC/makeScorpionPDB.sh   (#!/bin/bash)

2) Run setup.sh. This script changes some pathnames in the configuration
   files to be correct for where you've installed Scorpion. It also creates
   a file with some common shell variables set. This file will be used by
   some of the other scripts.

3) Put the Jakarta Commons Logging jar file in the scorpion/lib directory

4) cd into the scorpion/PDB/LCC directory. 
   Run 'makeScorpionPDB.sh lccSample' . This is a fairly CPU intensive 
   program, so you may want to shut down other large applcations first.

5) Run test.sh to test the demo database. It will classify the file 
   scorpion/demo/scorpion.input. An HTML fragment with the results of the 
   classification will be placed in scorpion/demo/scorpion.output.html


See docs/index.html for more detailed instructions on how to get the
application running with your classification database.
