getnltk.py is located in /trunk/apertium-tools/scraper/getnltk.py. It was written by Daniel Huang.
If you want to use NLTK's Punkt sentence tokenizer, you can call getnltk.py in your Python 3 code like:

py2output = subprocess.check_output(['python', 'getnltk.py', tosplit, lang])
  • tosplit is the text that will be tokenized into sentences
  • lang is the 3-letter or 2-letter language code. Currently, it supports English, Russian, and Armenian.

The sentences will be printed to the variable py2output. xml2txt.py (in the same directory) uses getnltk.py.
