auxiliary scripts and make-big-lm

What are the typical situations when some of the training-scripts are  
useful?

Eg., there're  get-gt-counts, which produce a few small files out of  
my huge 5-gram count file.  Also there're make-gt-discounts, make-kn- 
counts, make-kn-discounts.  Are these mostly called by make-big-lm, or  
have their own uses?  With the ngram-count, there's -kn set of options  
to read the counts -- when is it useful to save/read them with it?

I'd really like to try a few huge models with make-big-lm.  Is it by  
itself sufficient for model estimation, calling the auxiliary script  
on its own?

Cheers,
Alexy
