This is a simple module which makes an unscientific effort at summarizing English text. It recognizes simple patterns which look like statements, abridges them, and concatenates them into something vaguely resembling a summary. It needs more work on large bodies of text, but it seems to have a decent effect on small inputs at the moment. WWW: http://search.cpan.org/search?dist=Lingua-EN-Summarize Seamus Venasse
