Question about flucalc in bilingual samples

Wed Apr 4 20:56:52 UTC 2018

hi Brian,
One more question related to KIDEVAL, which I am also trying to use
The totals for FREQ Tokens in KIDEVAL do not match the FREQ total tokens.
Is this because KIDEVAL works off the MOR line and FREQ off the main line?
