The operating system gets unhappy if there are too many files in a folder.

ASCII text, ANSI text, Text Only and DOS text are all names for plain text.<\/span><\/p>\n\r

<\/p>\n\r

Most word-processors insert special hidden codes into text files to help them keep track of page numbers, bold type and so on. Oxford WordSmith Tools can handle them anyway but you\'ll get cleaner results if you use plain text without the hidden codes. <\/p>\n\r

<\/p>\n\r

If your source texts were saved as "Text Only with line breaks" there will probably be one <Enter><\/span> every 70 or 80 characters at the end of each text line. If they were saved as "Text Only", the <Enters><\/span> will be equivalent to paragraph breaks. I recommend saving as "Text Only".<\/p>\n\r

<\/p>\n\r

The Windows program Notepad<\/span> (Start | Program Files | Accessories<\/span>) makes plain text files or .txt<\/span> files. It uses basic character sets e.g. A<\/span> to Z<\/span>, numbers and common punctuation symbols. The main difference is in the accented characters. For more on this, see character sets<\/a>. <\/p>\n\r

DOS (text format before Windows) offered a range of character sets called "codepages". They all shared the same codes for the standard English alphabet (<\/span>a<\/span>, for example is always code 97) and common punctuation symbols, but included varying symbols for box-drawing, foreign language accents, etc. <\/span><\/p>\n\r

If you process texts in German, Spanish, Russian, Greek, Polish, etc. you may need to find out which codepage was used when the texts were originally typed. <\/span><\/p>\n\r

For example, the character <\/span>ã<\/span> is coded one way in codepage 850 (Multilingual) but differently in codepage 860 (Portuguese). It is simply not available at all in codepage 437 (the default codepage in the UK and USA). To alter or examine codepages, see a DOS manual or check the topic out on the web.<\/span><\/p>\n\r

<\/span><\/p>\n\r

When it loads up, <\/span>Oxford WordSmith Tools<\/span> detects the current DOS code-page, so the codepage is only likely to need altering if you are using texts produced when another codepage was in use. <\/span><\/p>\n\r

Windows character set codes are different from thos in DOS or Unicode. (The <\/span>£<\/span> symbol is code 156 in DOS but 163 in Windows.) In Windows 95 or later you can get non-Western fonts enabled via Microsoft Plus. If your texts were written using a Windows word-processor and <\/span>saved as text<\/a><\/span> in Windows, the accented characters will obey the Windows codes. You will have access to a few more symbols than in DOS (e.g. <\/span>®,©,™<\/span> and curly apostrophes).<\/span><\/p>\n\r

Conventionally one assumes that one word is distinguished from the next by the presence of spaces at either end. But <\/span>Oxford WordSmith Tools<\/span> also includes within word separators certain standard codes used by most word processors: page eject code (12), tabs (9), carriage return (13) and line feed (10), end-of-text (26). Besides, <\/span>hyphens<\/a><\/span> may optionally be considered to split words like <\/span>self-access<\/span> into two words. <\/span><\/p>\n\r

Note that in Chinese and Japanese which do not separate words in this way, any WordSmith functions which require word-separation will not work unless you get your texts previously tagged with word-separators.<\/span><\/p>\n\r" popid_1292402282="

These are formats for text exchange. The most well known is HTML, Hypertext Markup Language, used for distributing texts via the Internet.

All these standards use plain text<\/a><\/span> with additional extra tags, mostly angle-bracketed, such as <h1> and <\/h1>. The point of inserting these tags is to add extra sorts of information to the text:<\/p>\n\r

1 a header (<head><\/span>) supplying details of the authorship & edition<\/p>\n\r

2 how it should display (e.g. <bold>, <italics><\/span>)<\/p>\n\r

Apostrophes not processed<\/span><\/p>\n\r

If your original text files were saved using Microsoft Word™, you may find <\/span>Concord<\/span> can\'t find apostrophes or quotation marks in them! This is because Word can be set to produce "smart" symbols. The ordinary apostrophe or inverted comma in this case will be replaced by a curly one, curling left or right depending on its position on the left or right of a word. These smart symbols are not the same as straight apostrophes or double quote symbols.<\/span><\/p>\n\r

weird symbols<\/span><\/p>\n\r

funny symbols when using Oxford WordSmith Tools<\/p>\n\r

<\/span><\/p>\n\r

1. Check your text files. Read them in <\/span>Notepad<\/span>. Do they contain lots of strange symbols? These may be hidden codes used by your usual word-processor. Solution: read them into your usual word-processor and <\/span>Save As<\/span>, with a new na<\/span>me, in plain text<\/a> format, sometimes called "Text Only" or <\/span>.txt<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n\r

2. <\/span>Choose Texts<\/span>, highlight the text file, and before pressing <\/span>OK<\/span>, press <\/span>View<\/span>. Does it contain strange symbols? Solution: change <\/span>Text Settings<\/span>; try going from one of the DOS character sets to Windows or vice-versa. The text <\/span>was clean ASCII<\/a> but <\/span>Oxford WordSmith Tools<\/span> thought it was Windows ANSI.<\/span><\/p>\n\r

3. Funny symbols in a word list may well also be caused by mis-spellings in the original text files.<\/span><\/p>\n\r

<\/span><\/p>\n\r

Greek, Russian, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n\r

4. If the text is in Russian, Greek, etc. you will need an appropriate font, obtainable from your Windows cd or via the Microsoft website.<\/span><\/p>\n\r

5. If you have several lists open which use <\/span>different<\/span> character sets, and yo<\/span>u change Font<\/a> or Text Characteristics<\/a>, the lists will all be updated to show the current font and character set, unless you first minimize any window which would be affected.<\/span><\/p>\n\r

Your text file is defective. It may well contain useful text, but it also contains at least one unrecognised character such as character(0).

The standard search function (F12 or <\/span> $\"SEARCH\"$ ) for a list of data operates on the currently highlighted column. If you want to search within data from another column, click in that column first.<\/span><\/p>\n\r

By default, a search is "whole word". Use * at either end of the word or number you\'re searching for if you want to find it, e.g. in any data consisting of more than one word. (The advantage of the asterisk system is that it allows you to specify either a prefix or a suffix or both, unlike the standard Windows search "whole word" option.)<\/span><\/p>\n\r" popid_2011294560X="
