Version 1.1.1

The main change in this version is a bug fix to requirements.txt to make it do minimum version comparisons instead of the exact version comparisons it was doing before. Other changes include fixes to the documentation and the addition of a NEWS.md file.

Nostril (Nonsense String Evaluator) is a Python 3 module that can infer whether a given word or text string is likely to be nonsense or meaningful text. A "meaningful" string of characters is one constructed from real or real-looking English words or fragments of real words (even if the words are runtogetherlikethis). The main use case is to decide whether short strings returned by source code mining methods are likely to be program identifiers (of classes, functions, variables, etc.), or random or other non-identifier strings.
