1.7 Fri May 14 15:38:04 CEST 2010

• Tests now work with the data files located at either ../data or data.
• The make test now always generates the data/data.* files--this didn't work on Darwin and MSWin32.
• Added calculate() method, which returns all probabilities. identify () now just calls calculate() and returns the most probable language.
• When neither a trigram nor a bigram is found, use the average alphabet size instead of the individual language's alphabet size, as this penalizes Asian languages.
