i just started working to make a Japanese chat-bot using chatscript. I have Already created an English one (kind of question answering machine) . I have one question whether chat-script can do pattern matching if there is no spaces between words as in the case of Japanese language.

e.g;
#English translation of this pattern is OPERATING SYSTEM
u: (<<オペレーティング·システム>>)  %os  

If the input is 実行しているオペレーティングシステム. There is no pattern matching
NOTE:  実行しているオペレーティングシステム (English translation is WHAT IS YOUR OPERATING SYSTEM).

But with space 実行している    オペレーティングシステム between words there is pattern matching.

if you use :prepare on your input, you will probably find spell correction tried to fix it, and you will want to turn off spell-correction in $cs_token
