Method abspath Return the absolute path for the given file.
Method abspaths Return a list of the absolute paths for all fileids in this corpus; or for the given list of fileids, if specified.
Method citation Return the contents of the corpus citation.bib file, if it exists.
Method encoding Return the unicode encoding for the given corpus file, if known. If the encoding is unknown, or if the given file should be processed using byte strings (str), then return None.
Method ensure_loaded Load this corpus (if it has not already been loaded). This is used by LazyCorpusLoader as a simple method that can be used to make sure a corpus is loaded -- e.g., in case a user wants to do help(some_corpus).
Method fileids Return a list of file identifiers for the fileids that make up this corpus.
Method license Return the contents of the corpus LICENSE file, if it exists.
Method open Return an open stream that can be used to read the given file. If the file's encoding is not None, then the stream will automatically decode the file's contents into unicode.
Method readme Return the contents of the corpus README file, if it exists.
Class Variable root Undocumented
Method _get_root Undocumented
Instance Variable _encoding The default unicode encoding for the fileids that make up this corpus. If encoding is None, then the file contents are processed using byte strings.
Instance Variable _fileids A list of the relative paths for the fileids that make up this corpus.
Instance Variable _root The root directory for this corpus.
Instance Variable _tagset Undocumented
