It's a very big opportunity for me to find someone that both is a poet and
knows something about programming.

- I was visiting a friend's country house, I had ducked out of the office early, and was a good several hours ahead of the rest of the group. My friend Anika, is notoriously horny, and just the sight of her leopard print pillows and curtains in the country reminded me that things would be getting ridiculously frisky.
February 16: discovery of the first-ever malware for Mac OS X, a low-threat trojan-horse known as OSX/Leap-A or OSX/Oompa-A, is announced. Late March: Brontok variant N was found in late March. Brontok was a mass-email worm and the origin for the worm was from Indonesia. June: Starbucks is a virus that infects StarOffice and OpenOffice.
First, please excuse my bad english ; I'm a french canadian.
I am dreaming to write a software to help french poets to write strict
rigourous classical poetry. Since calssical poetry is somewhat mathematical,
a lot of tasks can be automatised :
1- Counting the number of syllabs ('pied' in french) in a verse
2- Checking the rimes ; determining the strength of a rime
3- Checking compliance of a poem to a fixed pre-determined classical form (in
french, we have distique, tercet, quatrain, quintain, sixain, huitain,
dizain, triolet, vilanelle, rondeau, rondel, ballade, chant royal, sonnet,
etc.)
4- Propose a synonym that will fit in a verse, i.e. with the right amount of
syllabs

5- Suggest a missing word or expression in a verse by applying the Shannon
text generation principle

First, do you think it may be a useful tool ?
What other features you think can make it usefull for a poet ?
The first task of cutting sentences into syllabs (phonetically of course, not
typographically) is already done. It's been difficult to get it right and to
make it guess correctly with a very very high percentage.
I can very well imagine that the next task is even more difficult. I need to
translate text into phonems. Do you know some software that does it ? I guess
that voice synthetisers that translates written text into spoken text must
first translate the text into phonems. Right ? Do you know if there some way
that I can re-use some sub-modules from these projects that will translate
text into phonems ?
