   * The basic units are blocks. They serve for some very limited, well defined, and often linguistically interpretable tasks (e.g., tokenization, tagging, parsing). Technically, blocks are Perl classes inherited from ''TectoMT::Block'', each saved in a separate file. The blocks repository is in ''libs/blocks/''.   * The basic units are blocks.

-  * To solve a more complex task, selected blocks can be chained into a block sequence, called also a scenario. Technically, scenarios are instances of ''TectoMT::Scenario'' class, but in some situations (e.g. on the command line) it is sufficient to specify the scenario simply by listing block names separated with spaces.+  * To solve a more complex task, selected blocks can be chained into a block sequence, called also a scenario.

   * The highest unit is called application. Applications correspond to end-to-end tasks, be they real end-user applications (such as machine translation), or 'only' NLP-related experiments. Technically, applications are often implemented as ''Makefiles'', which only glue the components existing in TectoMT. Some demo applications can be found in ''applications''.   * The highest unit is called application.
