remove some deprecated options
Some options, like '-f', 'textclass' and '-x id' are obsolete since many years. I would like to remove them in the next release, by giving a fatal error with information. So we can really remove them in the übernext release
That sounds good to me yes. I was hoping to do releases today if you think ucto is ready?
--textclass actually does seem useful still as a convenient shortcut, don't you think?

Yes, it is, although it is in fact unwise to use it :)
But it is widely uses i fear
I am still a user of --textclass especially when working with OCRed text which needs to be post-corrected before tokenization.
Good to know. The functionality wouldn't be lost anyway, as there's --inputclass and --outputclass, but we'll keep --textclass as a shortcut for setting both at once so nothing will change here.
Thanks for the further info! I'll check out whether it would make more sense for me to use --inputclass and --outputclass instead.
