[16:40:41] <stepcut> I'm trying to use grammatical framework to generate random english sentences from a limited pool of words. And.. I'd like to do it in the browser. However, a quick peek at gflib.js would seem to indicate that it does not have a generateRandom function. Am I overlooking something? Perhaps I just need to do that server side instead?
[17:07:59] <stepcut> alternatively, I could use the PGF module, except gf currently fails to build with ghcjs due to some issue in the Setup.hs -- I have not looked in depth
[17:09:04] <stepcut> doesn't like this line, https://github.com/GrammaticalFramework/gf-core/blob/master/Setup.hs#L82
[17:10:30] <stepcut> maybe I should look into that more -- I don't really want to build the gf executable with ghcjs anyway, just the library

[22:42:43] <daherb> stepcut: could you use the gf web server api instead or should it be completely server-independent? http://cloud.grammaticalframework.org/gf-web-api.html
[22:46:55] <stepcut> for now it would be nice to not require a server, though eventually that will change, so perhaps I'll just make the change sooner rather than later
[22:47:15] <stepcut> Now I am trying to figure out how to use DictEng/DictEngAbs :-/
[22:52:57] <stepcut> and the Probabilities stuff
