 I tried to make the program stand between a "tool" and an "API": it may be seen as a framework for facilitating the use of a low level API. Thus, there may be different ways of using it:
-* it provides ready-to-use functions for creating kwic, extracting subcorpus, computing cooccurrency matrix, merging markup, etc.
+* it provides ready-to-use functions for creating KWIC, extracting subcorpora, computing co-occurrence matrices, merging markup, etc.
 * it may be used more generally as a way of applying XSLT / XQuery on big corpora, whatever the vocabulary is.
 * it may be used for plugging any SAX filters; and reduce the complexity of SAX by allowing to write only a SAX handler code, while the program manage the parser, the pipeline, and the serialisation of the output of the pipeline back to disk. Any class implementing the XMLFilter interface may be plugged in the filter by providing the qualified name of the java class in the query document (this class should be found in the CLASSPATH variable), and can interact with the already existing filters.
