Hi Birsu,

	FREQMERG is a short and limited version that does what FREQ command now can do with just few more options. FREQMERG was created a long time ago when FREQ was much more limited in its functionality. Now you are better off using FREQ command by itself.

1) As I understand what you are doing you can use command "freq +o3 +u +d2  *.cha" to get your result. If you are interested in words of just one speaker, for example *CHI, then use command "freq +t*chi +u +d2 *.cha".

2) To look for @n (neologisms) words add option "+s*@n" to either one of above commands.

If I misunderstood your goal, then please provide more information about what you are trying to achieve.


Leonid.

I will end up with a big document (hoping to merge around 100 stories to look for commonly used words) and having tried with smaller freqmerg outputs, it doesn't seem straightforward to copy-paste the output to excel and work on it manually.
