Hello to all,
Looking at tutorials and examples I see that many do fine tuning with `run_lm_finetuning.py`. However when I install the latest version of transformers this file doesn’t exist, I haven’t found it in the github repository either.
**So my question is if this file was discontinued, and, if so, what is the actual `.py` file that should be used for fine tuning of a language model?**

Hi,
It’s now here: [https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/master/examples/language-modeling](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/master/examples/language-modeling)

I think it’s because the script can also be used for training from scratch so having “fintetuning” in the name made it not very clear for many.
