        ## mkv-this
        
        mkv-this is a little script that uses the `markovify` python module to output a bunch of bot sentences based on a bank of text that you feed it. the results are saved to a text file of your choosing. if you run it again on the same output file, the new results are appended after the old ones.
        
        it was written by a total novice, so you probably shouldn’t download it. i only learned about argparser yesterday, and pypi.org today, no matter what day it is.
        
        #### install with pip:
        
        you can install it with pip, the python package manager.
        
        `python3 -m pip install mkv-this`
        
        you need python3, and markovify is a dependency, but it should install with mkv-this.
        
        #### options:
        
        the script implements a few of the basic `markovify` options, so you can:
        
        * specify a maximum sentence length
        * specify how many sentences to output
        * specify state size, i.e. the number of preceeding words to be used in calculating the probability of the next word.
        * specify an additional file to use for text input. for the moment you can add only one.
        
        run `mkv-this -h` to see how to use these options.
        
        #### for best results:
        
        feed `mkv-this` large-ish amounts of well punctuated text. it works best if you bulk replace/remove as much mess as possible (URLs, metadata, stars, bullets, etc.), unless you want mashed versions of those things in your output.
        
        if your input text doesn’t use full-stops to mark the ends of sentences, try putting each 'sentence' on a newline, so the parser doesn't read your entire file as one big sentence and output nothing.
        
        you’ll want to edit the output too. it is very much supposed to be a kind of raw material for human editing, rather than print-ready bosh, although many bots are happily publishing such output directly.
