conserving print space in freq

[Brian MacWhinney]

Dear Nan,

One easy way to do this is to open your FREQ output in a text editor like MS-Word or BBEdit and replace carriage returns with tabs.   I tried this and it was readable and definitely would save paper.  But I don't quite understand what exactly you want.  Maybe if you could type out a few lines of the current input and then show precisely how you would want to have it formatted, we could get a clearer idea of what you have in mind.  Also, could you please explain how you use this to "identify potential lexical candidates".  Candidates for what?  Training?  Testing?

We tend to examine output in groups to identify potential lexical candidates.  Right now we cut and paste into columns or spreadsheets, but I was wondering if there was a better option?
