Any support for MetaMapLite version?

Hi, Thanks for your great program.

I wonder if you can make your program work with MetaMapLite version. MetaMap tends to be rigorous but slower than the lite version, and it would be nicer if you can support both versions.

I have created changes for running MetaMapLite:
kaushikacharya@fff94bb

Can you please have a look whether this is ok?

As mentioned in this thread, mmi output of Lite doesn't contains a separate "Location" field as location is part of "Trigger Information" field. Hence had to create corresponding files for MetaMapLite.

Have tested on MetaMapLite 3.6.1p1

Awesome! If you create a pull request, then I can take a look and test the additions before merging.

From the documentation it seemed that option chemdnersldi in MetaMapLite corresponds to sldiID in MetaMap, but that doesn't seems to work.
Hence index field of concept isn't getting populated with the ids passed in extract_concepts()

Update: Issue which I had mentioned in previous post has been corrected.
I was using the wrong input parameter for the input document format.

Have tested on MetaMapLite 3.6.2rc3

@AnthonyMRios
Did you got a chance to review my changes?

[AnthonyMRios]

Not in detail. I have a paper deadline coming up. I should have some time to review/commit the changes this weekend.
