I'll release a new version in the next days.

EDIT: Ok, i ran into some problems, my old corpora files seems to include some incompatible expressions and i can not get the clean_corpus.py script working. Any ideas on that problem?

EDIT2: Solved by lbzip2 -d < corpus.txt.bz2 | ./clean_corpus.py | lbzip2 > new_corpus.txt.bz2

EDIT3: Update published on openrepos.

So I just updated OKBoard from 0.5.12 to 0.6.9, and now if I enable OKboard no keyboard comes up in any application, and even if I disable it again it stays missing (and all applications that had a textbox hang) until reboot. I don't see any log files, either.

I had this problem too and there has been some discussion on the openrepos page - try uninstalling and reinstalling, that worked for me.

Thanks, that fixed it. And indeed, 0.6.9 is much more functional than 0.5.12 on non-Jolla devices.

I have a bug report: I cannot swipe the word "on". All other words work fine, including "in", but "on" never comes up, even in the suggestions, and it never learns it from manually typing either. Any suggestions?

how many words should the input dictionary have? and has anyone of you tried doing this for Hungarian?

For training, you count not the words as such, but the corpus of text on the basis of which you'll get the database (not dictionary, but words and their combinations with the corresponding probabilities).

Trick is to find such corpus. I have done some training for presage predictor and used the following corpora (sizes in MBs of text file):

* English: 156MB
* Estonian: 1900MB

Russian was downloaded as n-grams database immediately from a site providing it.

For Hungarian, I would suggest to contact @martonmiklos. He trained presage for Hungarian and should have the corpus somewhere.

First, huge thanks for @eber42 for making OKboard!

I'm working on a Finnish dictionary, but it's really hard to find quality corpuses. I'm currently experimenting with Wikipedia-based and news based, but it seems I need bigger and better corpora... Does anyone know any good sources?

I did manage to get the thing to build (by cruely skipping the very last step that causes the build to fail and suggesting a bigger corpora - I wanted a proof of concept, won't be skipping the test in release version) but there are problems. I cut the original word list in half, but I'm still getting kinda huge (12MB...30MB) fi.tre file, predict-fi.db is 26kB and predict-fi.ng is 813kB. In comparison the English en.tre is below two megabytes... As a result, the delay between the gesture and the word appearing is...very noticable to be modest. What would be a good size to aim at?

Thanks all!

For Estonian, I contacted an academic lab and got the corpus from them. I would expect that you could do so for Finnish similarly. Find some Finnish language institute and they may help you.

Formats are different, but for presage in its new Marisa-based format (trie and counts stored separately), I have 12MB database for Estonian. For English, its 6MB. So, its expected for languages, such as Finnish, to have larger database.

To regulate the size of the database, you would have to increase/decrease cut-off n-gram count. In this aspect, keep the corpus full size and just change that parameter.

Additional note - we are missing Finnish among languages supported by presage-based predictor. Would you mind to generate n-grams database for that too

Since Sailfish version 3 the change of the active language in OKboard has become unable. The only way you can change keyboard language is disabling Okboard, going into Configuration -> Text Input -> Change active keyboard and then enable Okboard again. Too many steps to this action. An update of this behaivour would be welcome. Thanks!
