	1	-----------------
	2
	3	A submission for NaNoGenMo 2021 ([#62][]).

	7	It's well known that Markov chains don't understand grammar; any sequences
	8	in the output that might look grammatical are only there because
	9	grammatical-looking sequences are statistically likely.
	10
	11	This is an experimental variation on a Markov generator that _does_ retain
	12	some of the syntactic structure of the original text.
	13
	14	Turns out we can run the Dissociated Press algorithm, not just on a list
	15	of words like usual, but on a forest of parse trees. I call this variation
	16	Dissociated Parse.
	17
	18	## To run
	19
	20	You'll need Python 3 (I used the version that ships with Ubuntu 20.04,
	21	which is Python 3.8.10) and the `link-parser` executable installed.
	22
	23	Sources for `link-parser` can be found on GitHub:
	24	[opencog/link-grammar](https://github.com/opencog/link-grammar). I built
	25	it from source. YMMV.
	26
	27	After you have the executables, you can:
2	28
3	29	virtualenv --python=python3.8 venv
4	30	source venv/bin/activate

11	37	./04_parse.py # this one will take a while
12	38	./05_build.py
13	39	./06_traverse.py
