## Information
Following https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/master/examples/token-classification/README.md


The problem arises when using:
python3 scripts/preprocess.py train.txt.tmp $BERT_MODEL $MAX_LENGTH > train.txt
python3 scripts/preprocess.py dev.txt.tmp $BERT_MODEL $MAX_LENGTH > dev.txt
python3 scripts/preprocess.py test.txt.tmp $BERT_MODEL $MAX_LENGTH > test.txt

The commands above produce the following output:

Thanks!
Hi @jdruvini , the script was added in [Transformers 3.0.0](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/releases/tag/v3.0.0) so unfortuntately it is only working with more recent versions of Transformers. Could you try to update your version to at least 3.0 to give it a try 🤔<|||||>Indeed... My bad, sorry.<|||||>The GermEval 2014 files have been moved and the curl commands in the README do not work. The new location is:
