COMPARE
is used to compare pairs of the sorted vocabulary lists produced by the
companion program WORDLIST. It simply displays
the combined frequencies for any words which appear
in both lists. The results may then be saved to compare with other lists in the common format
used by WORDLIST or COMPARE. The main control screen simply requires the
names of two files containing lists of words already generated. If a file of a given name cannot be found, or is not in a comparable format, an error message will be displayed.
If the text to be read is in a language
other than English, use the pull-down menu
to apply the correct lexicographic
conventions.
