jjb529, Thank you!

For me this little piece of program is a Gold mine! I'm currently doing a Master Thesis in Text Mining, and you would believe what problems I've had finding free tools to use for document statistics. The one on this website cannot handle the length of document I want to analyse (it says documents up to 500KB, but refuses mine because they are over 10,000 characters).

Three things that I would like to see in the program:
1) The possibility to choose many documents at once, possibly with the ability to see deviances between them.
2) Some sort of stemming available. There are many free ones around (such as http://www.tartarus.org/~martin/PorterStemmer/), so the amount of work should be minimal.
2) The Ignore*.txt files working. They aren't working at the moment, right? If they are, I'm failing to see how to get them activated.

Again, thanks a bunch. Keep up the good work!
