Step 4 - Convert eText to MLF file

Convert the transcription to an HTK 'mlf' file by executing the etext2wlistmlf.pl script in the following format:

    $ perl ./etext2wlistmlf.pl [eText.txt file] [wav filename (no suffix)] 

For our current example, execute etext2wlistmlf.pl as follows:

    $ perl ./etext2wlistmlf.pl eText.txt downsampled

This creates the following words.mlf file.

Note: you need to make sure that the text contained in the eText is the same as what is recorded.
