[Corpora-List] (no subject)

[Eirini LS]

I mean that I have two different scripts for the same word (e.g. two scripts for "cat") written by different people. The first script generates 358 words (and only 107 words are correct), and the second script generates 497 words (and 471 words are correct). Can I say that the result of the first script is worse or not?
Once again sorry for bothering.

Sorry, I don't understand the question; I'm not sure what it means to have two scripts for a word, nor what the units are.

As for UTF8, whether it appears in xfst depends on the settings in whatever command-line processor you're using (Linux bash, Windows' cmd, etc.).  That said, for testing purposes (as opposed to, say, debugging a new rule), you generally want to send your output to a file, so you can compare it with previous results.
