What does the AutoTokClean-Script do?

The AutoTok-Script applies the "utf8-tokenize.pl"-Script (see below) to .txt files and saves the thereby tokenized files as .xlsx with one token per column.

Requirements for using the AutoTok-Script

The "utf8-tokenize.pl"-Script has to be in the same directory as the AutoTok-Script and all files that shlold be tokenized.

How to apply the AutoClean-Script

Clean all files in directory:

dir/to/txt/files$ python AutoTok.py

Clean a list of selected files (with the --file command)

dir/to/text/files$ python AutoClean.py --file <some_txt_file.xlsx> <another_txt_file.xlsx> <third_txt.xlsx> <...>
