.HP 13
\fBmkbinhmmlist\fR {hmmdefs_file} {HMMList_file} {output_binhmmlist_file}
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP

\fBmkbinhmmlist\fR
converts a HMMList file to binary format. Since the index trees for lookup are also stored in the binary format, it will speed up the startup of Julius, namely when using big HMMList file.
.PP
For conversion, HMM definition file
\fIhmmdefs_file\fR
that will be used together at Julius needs to be specified. The format of the HMM definition file can be either ascii or Julius binary format.
.PP
The output binary file can be used in Julius as the same by "\fB\-hlist\fR". The format wil be auto\-detected by Julius.
.PP

\fBmkbinhmmlist\fR
can read gzipped file.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.PP
\fIhmmdefs_file\fR
.RS 3n
Acoustic HMM definition file, in HMM ascii format or Julius binary format.

\fIoutput_binhmmlist_file\fR
.RS 3n
