Hermetic Word Frequency Counter

This software scans a Word DOCX file or a text file (including HTML and XML files) with text encoded via ANSI or UTF-8 and counts the frequencies of different words. The words which are found and displayed can be ordered alphabetically or by frequency. Characters which can appear in words can be specified, so the program can be told to allow or disallow words with numerals, hyphens, apostrophes, underscores or colons, to ignore words which are short or which occur infrequently, to treat upper/lower case as significant or not, and to ignore words (e.g., common words such as 'this', a.k.a. stop words) contained in a specified file. This software may be used with text in most European languages. The language of the text is detected automatically and (if supported) the corresponding stop words file is optionally loaded. Results can be exported to Excel for further processing. There is also an Advanced Version with greater functionality.

Hermetic Word Frequency Counter Advanced Version

This software scans one or many Word DOCX, text and text-like files (e.g. HTML and XML files) and counts the number of occurrences of the different words or phrases. There is no limit on the size of an input text file. The words/phrases which are found can be displayed alphabetically or by frequency. The program can be told to allow or disallow words with numerals, hyphens, apostrophes, underscores or colons, to ignore words which are short or which occur infrequently, and to ignore words (e.g., common words such as 'the', a.k.a. stop words) contained in a specified file. It can also count only words or phrases in a specified list (optionally with pattern-matching). Results can be exported to Excel for further processing. The program works with text in most European languages, and supports the use of regular expressions for specifying words/phrases to count.
