Overview

Scissors deal with cutting a source string into fragments, known as unclassified forms. They are then fed to an instance of Classifier, which determines whether an unclassified form is actually a decimal, quoted word, quote, etc. You can think of Scissors as a fancy split- by-whitespace.

Scissors and Classifier are designed to work in tandem. Separating one from the other is possible and will work, but is not recommended unless you have read the source code of both.
