Default American National Corpus

I have downloaded American National Corpus from here
American National Corpus

For free, of course.

But soon I found out that it is just a set of texts and I need another program to operate them. So I downloaded free demoversions of two such programms from:
athelstan
WordSmith Tools

But the formats seem to mismatch. I convert the corpuses into formats of Moncoc pro or Wordsmith, but they can't work.

It is interesting, of course. But I'd like to try off-line version too. In the section "Software" they mention a lot of programmes. Maybe I will be able to cope with them.
