Hi.  My sister, studying in the UK (I'm in Oz), has informed me that she needs
some software for her PC (IBMcompat) that can analyse text (for mood,
writing style, jounalistic style, etc) as she is analysing HEAPS of media
articles (typically newspaper) for her research.  Neither she nor I have much
knowledge in the area and so I'm wondering if anyone could suggest anything
(eg software titles, ftp sites with related info, etc...)
Thanks!
--Chris

Both Grammatik and Right Writer are good, but they are commercial products
and I don't think you will pick them up at a ftp site.
