I've installed RiTa and the following example works fine
Forum won't let me post the link to the examples that work.
Here's the code to one of them:

import rita.wordnet.*;

RiWordnet wordnet;
PFont font1, font2;
String word, hypos[];

void setup()
{
 size(300, 300);    
 font1 = loadFont("Arial-Black-12.vlw");
 font2 = loadFont("Ziggurat32.vlw");  
 wordnet = new RiWordnet(this);
}

void draw()
{  
 background(40);
 
 // get synonyms every 100 frames
 if (frameCount%100 == 1)  
 {
   String[] tmp = null;
   while (tmp == null) {
     word = wordnet.getRandomWord("n");
     tmp = wordnet.getAllSynonyms(word, "n", 15);
   }    
   Arrays.sort(tmp);
   hypos = tmp;    
 }

 textFont(font2);  // draw query word
 text(word, width-textWidth(word)-30, 40);

 int yPos=60;   // draw the synonyms
 textFont(font1);
 for (int i = 0; i < hypos.length; i++)
   text(hypos[i], 30, yPos += 13);  
}




When I tried to run the code from this example

import rita.*;

// Kafka + Wittgenstein

/*
* @desc Uses a Markov model to produce text.
*/

int MAX_LINE_LENGTH = 60;

RiText rts[];
RiMarkov markov;

void setup()
{    
 size(380, 500);

 // a little info msg
 new RiText(this, "click to (re)generate!", 135, height/2);
 
 RiText.setDefaultAlignment(LEFT);

 // create a new markov model w' n=3
 markov = new RiMarkov(this, 3);  
 
 // load 2 files into the model
 markov.loadFile("wittgenstein.txt");
 markov.loadFile("kafka.txt");    
}

void draw()
{
 background(80);
}

// generate on mouse click
void mouseClicked()
{  
 RiText.deleteAll(); // clean-up old data

 // generate 10 (linked) sentences
 String[] lines = markov.generateSentences(10);

 // lay out the return text starting at x=20 y=50)
 rts = RiText.createLines(this, lines, 20, 50, MAX_LINE_LENGTH);
}



I get the following error:
"Note that release 1.0, libraries must be installed in a folder named 'libraries' inside the 'sketchbook' folder."

The first obvious difference I see  is the working examples import:
import rita.wordnet.*;

and the example that keeps bugging out imports:
import rita.*;


when I swap out "import rita.*;" with  "import rita.wordnet.*;"

I get the error "cannot find class or type named RiText"

Not too familiar with java. But I'm guessing it has something to do with the namespace.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When I leave them both there I get the error:

Cannot find a class or type named "RiText"


which is the same error I get when I only import rita.wordnet.*

going to e-mail rednoise.org and see if he can help.
