This is the Perl version of IQMT v1.2, an MT evaluation package that
allows you to combine several automatic MT evaluation metrics in
a very simple and ellegant manner.

IQMT provides i) a measure to evaluate the quality of any set of
similarity metrics (KING), ii) a measure to evaluate the quality of a
translation using a set of similarity metrics (QUEEN), and
iii) a measure to evaluate the reliability of a test set (JACK).

To configure this module, cd to the directory that contains this README file
and type the following:

	perl Makefile.PL

Alternatively, if you plan to install IQMT somewhere other than
your system's perl library directory. You can type something like this:

	perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/me/perl

Then to build you run make.

	make

If you have write access to the installation directories, you may then
install by typing:

	make install

Remember so set 'path' and PERL5LIB variables:

set path = ($path /home/me/IQMT-1.2/bin)
setenv PERL5LIB /home/me/IQMT-1.2/lib:$PERL5LIB
setenv PERL5LIB /home/me/IQMT-1.2/tools/METEOR:$PERL5LIB


Discussion on features and bugs of this software as well as information
about oncoming updates takes place on the IQMT group, to which
