WordSmith Tools Help

The point of it

is to provide a relatively quick set of results, finding the terms in a list and arranging them by their frequency in your corpus.

Useful for terminology research. Or as a check before concordancing to study in more detail.

 

How to do it

In File Utilities, find the Term List tab.

 

term_search_dlg

Create a simple term list saved in Notepad:

 

term_list_terms

Press the Find all terms button.

 

Results will look like this:

term_list_results

The terms are listed in order of your original list, and within variants by frequency. They are saved in a temporary file, you can save it elsewhere as you like.
