-p option

This option opens the checkpoint file or loads a binary model file and processes it, beginning from the last checkpoint saved in the checkpoint file if this exists, or beginning from the start of the .py? file. All changes are saved on termination.

This option is not valid with an .mdl file.

Note: A checkpoint file exists if model processing was suspended. The file has a .qy? extension, where the question mark (?) is replaced by the character that is used in your version of Transformer.

The basic syntax for using the -p option is as follows:

cogtr -pfilename.py?

The following example starts Transformer, process the MDL verb commands in the file monthly_update.mdl, obtains preference settings from the file, trnsfrm_prd.xml, and saves the model:

cogtr -pgo_sales_jan.pyj -mmonthly_update.mdl -ftrnsfrm_prd.xml
