NAME

       ots - Open Text Summarizer

SYNOPSIS

       ots [OPTIONS] [file.txt | stdin]

DESCRIPTION

       The  Open  Text  Summarizer  is  an  open source tool for summarizing texts. The program reads a text and
       decides which sentences are important and which are  not.  OTS  will  create  a  short  summary  or  will
       highlight the main ideas in the text.

       OTS  is both a library and a command line tool. Word processors such as AbiWord and KWord can link to the
       library and summarize documents while the command line tool lets you summarize text on the  console.  The
       program  can  either  print  the summarized text as text or HTML. If in HTML, the important sentences are
       highlighted.
