INSTALLATION

USAGE

java -jar [path-to-the-jar/TimeML-validator.jar] file/s or folder/s

EXAMPLE (if TimeML-validator is included in the CLASSPATH)

java -jar TimeML-validator myfile.tml

OPTIONS

-d for debugging information
-t for choosing normal (default) or minimum checking

The "minimum" checking is less strict that the normal checking. This for example does require the ids to be, for example, "t+number" for TIMEX and does not check the TIMEX values. For detailed differences diff tml.xsd and tml-min-concistency.xsd.
