This program can be complex. This step must be taken great care of. Indeed, all further analyses depend on it. These programs are modular. This means that each of them has a specific role in a chain.
All programs produce at least one output, i.e. a listing of results.
In our analysis of Hamlet, the output from the comparison between text and dictionary is sent out to the SAS statistical package for polynomial analysis. These are the things that the system can do. Not all these programs are necessary to have a successful run. Many of these programs are for creating or editing dictionaries, or striplists, or for editing the text. For convenience, the list is alphabetical.
