RATS: A middle-level text utility system

Conclusion While this system does not supply all of the features we might wish, it does facilitate greatly many of the tasks that humanists and language analysts often perform. Its general flexibility should enable the user to design and implement procedures that fit his analytic model more precisely and sensitively than is generally possible. The results, hopefully, will be a greater number of computer-assisted works that are of definite substantive importance within the user's discipline.
