Irina:How did you get from PITA to Sweden?
Practice? (bad joke--would "swim" be a better joke?)
Context.
The original statement that time around was Psi's assertion that Swedish day was a PITA.
Well, using things like (adjartnounprep), or, better yet, you could do it with a single regex!
only for properly spelt English.
Hmm, I suppose you could use
^([abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz]+) (re)
but it would take some fine-tuning to stop it cutting in when you want a more specific keyphrase to get picked.
Hee hee! You would have to devote xnone to that one thing (the blank line). Perhaps that's not such a bad idea -- it could be argued that a really well-written bot would not rely on xnone; it would 'have an answer for everything'!
I confess, it is my dearest aim (well, one of them anyway,) to persuade the Prof to patch in a learning bot like Jabberwacky to handle the xnones. Then our bots would have a spark of indeterminacy about them.
They're already unpredictable, but only by virtue of their size and complexity. If they could 'listen' to all the conversations (especially the human input,) and use that to hone new (and non-pre-programmed) non-case-based responses for the xnones, I think it would be the perfect marriage of the 2 conversational AI philosophies.

you know, it almost might work. Sort of.
If you ranked it, oh I don't know, minus 15 or so (-ish), so it really didn't cut in except where it was useful. It would take some fine-tuning, and I'm not sure the ranking gradation is fine enough (only -127 to +127, and the useful range probably being no more than -10 to -30,) but it does make me wonder a bit now I think about it.
Hmm, I'll add that to the list of things that sound like a good idea at the time, but which I will certainly never live long enough to get round to actually doing anything with.

Hey any tips for keyphrases and responses....

Or rather, how would you meta-design it -- by which I mean, how would you make it possible for each botmaster to fashion his own?
I would simply use ^([abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890]+) (re) or ([abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890]+)$ (re) to pick up all the non-blank entries that are currently handled by xnones, and put the responses designed for blank input in xnone - that's the easy part.
The tricky part would be finding the rank that worked well enough (it's never likely to be perfect) - trial and error's the only way I think, somewhere around -15 or so I would guess.
