It is designed to be easy to work with so that teachers and students can use XConcord in the classroom to identify relevant texts by viewing words and expressions in context. Searching is quick and the size of the corpus is limited only by available disk space. Searching is very flexible.
Users can match any string with any part of a word or phrase.
Users can also limit the search to only those concordances either containing or missing specified strings in the context to the left or right of the keyword. XConcord shows the results in a KWIC display and also, as seen in the smaller bottom window in Figure 1, the complete sentence for the selected KWIC line. The complete document is displayed in yet another window. Easy methods for saving individual sentences or complete documents to new text files are provided. The users can then edit these files or use XConcord to print the results.
