Hello

You need to conifigure linker to load the libraries. You can do it several ways:

1. Edit /etc/ld.so.conf to point to the location where libraries are installed

2. Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to include /usr/local/lib. Put this into profile to make change permanent.

> $  sara.txt | text2wfreq >  a.wfreq

This command should start with cat:

cat sara.txt | text2wfreq >  a.wfreq

>/cygdrive/c/Users/user/Desktop/CMU/bin/text2wfreq.exe: error while loading shared libraries: ?: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Check that shared library is properly installed.

How am I supposed to know that the libraries are properly installed or no...I installed cygwin very well,I guess, and I selected all the packages even those which I do not need.By the way, even with "echo" it didn't work again.In the CMU documentation the command begins with "cat" but when I type that it doesn't work too,the good thing about the way I write commands that at least the text is recognised.

Check that files are placed in a proper folder and that they are referenced properly and could be loaded.

As a matter of fact you are talking to me just like am an expert in this, however it's the first time I use both cygwin and CMU so could you please make it easier for me: I didn't understand how should I check that the libraries are properly loaded is there any test to do????

Sorry, I'm trying to explain we need to understand Unix basics in order to proceed with language model training. If you have some detailed questions, even a simple ones but detailed please ask. I'll be happy to answer them.
