This function does exactly the same thing as simple consistency, but provides much more detail.
The point of it…
The idea is to help stylistic comparisons. Suppose you're studying several versions of a story, or different translations of it. This function enables you to see all the words which are used in the word lists separately, and sort them by text.
The Total column shows how many instances of each word occurred overall, Texts shows how many word list files it came in. Then there are two columns (No. of Lemmas, and Set which behaves as in a word-list) and then a column for each text. In this case, the word ABANDON occurred in 3 texts, it occurred 4 times in all, and it was most frequent in As You Like It at 2 occurrences. Statistics and filenames can be seen for the set of 37 Shakespeare plays used here by clicking on the tabs at the bottom. Notes can be edited and saved along with the detailed consistency list.
You can set a minimum number of texts and a minimum overall frequency in the WordList settings in the Controller. You can choose word lists or key word lists as input.
Settings
You can require a minimum number of word lists and minimum frequency in the main Controller.
Sorting
Each column can be sorted by clicking on its header column (Word, Freq. etc.). When working on Shakespeare plays, to get the words which occurred in all 37 to the top, I clicked Texts.
