GFSM finite state machine library

About GFSM

The gfsm package consists of libgfsm, an abstract C library of tools for manipulation of finite state machines, and the gfsm utilities, a set of command-line tools built on libgfsm. gfsm currently supports AT&T style weighted transducer text input and label definition files, as well as a number of common algebraic operations on finite state machines.
