Please test the feature script in the following way (change the parhs
as necessary) and report the errors that you get:

echo cluster/ri10/ri10.cluster | /clair4/projects/mead307/source/mead/bin/feature-scripts/QueryCosineNoIDF.pl -q t /clair6/projects/evolving-ie/fact-track/data/manual/ri10/questions/ri10.1.query cluster/ri10/docsent
