[Corpora-List] On-line concordancer for the European Constitution

[Joerg Tiedemann]

Dear Jean Veronis,

Thanks for the link to the constitution concordancer. I followed the link 
to the original documents and got a little bit frustrated. The format 
doesn't seem to be consistent for all languages (if you click on the 
English button, for example, you en up on a different page and the links 
to other languages from that page are broken). Most of the documents are 
also in PDf only which is a little bit annoying. How did you download the 
documents for your concordancer? I would like to get all texts for all 
languages in one batch run. Is there a page with plain text only (or 
maybe some simple HTML) with the same format for all official languages? 
That would be great!

kind regards,


Jörg
