1. The Compleat Lister Turns TEXT file into lists. 2. Tag Stripper Removes HTML tags. 3. Corpus Builder Join 10 files. 4. Sentence Extractor File to sentences. 5. Text Lex Compare Identify recurring and non-recurring words across a set of texts

Notes Most of these routines require TEXT files as their input. A text file is a simple file that contains no codes for emphasis, font sizes, etc. To transform a Word file into a text file, simply SAVE it AS text. You will not thereby lose the original file, but create an additional text file (identifiable by the .txt extension). These routines take their file inputs from a menu that accesses the hard drive; they have not been adapted for copy-paste text entry. For complex jobs, combine routines (e.g., first strip tags of html file, save as text file, then build list or extract sentences).
