<br>Linguistics class learn to use Grep tools for searching large corpora. I<br>know there's many great, fast Unix tools, but these students will be<br>using Windows machines. If possible, the program would have the<br>following features:
<br><br>-- Fast, since they'll be working with fairly large corpora (100 million<br>words and more)<br>-- Obviously, full regular expressions capability<br>-- Not run under Cygwin or a similar program, but rather as a native
