INTEXT/PC: A Program package for the Analysis of Texts in the Humanities and Social Sciences
HARALD KLEIN · Literary and Linguistic Computing · 1987
INTEXT/PC consists of twelve routines performing different analyses of texts. The first version for MS-DOS was written in 1987, the program language is C. A supervisor controls the routines, although each routine can be used as a standalone program. Versions for OS/2, UNIX and Apple Macintosh are planned. INTEXT/PC needs 384 KB free memory with supervisor and just 256 KB without it. A hard disk is recommended, but not necessary. Colour monitors (CGA/EGA/VGA) are supported. An English and a German version are currently available, the manual consists of 108 pages including a glossary and an index. Versions in other languages can easily be generated due to the fact that all menu texts and information messages are in separate files than can be edited. The whole system requires less than 600 KB free disk space including example, files INTEXT/PC was rewarded with a certificate for appreciated attainment and participation in the German Software University Competition 1989 (out of nine programs for the humanities and social sciences two received this certificate)
