I'm moving this into feature requests

And will it add Loeb classics?

And will Accordance tag Perseus?  But that could  be a monumental task.  Now I have to decide if I want to buy it again, now from accordance.

 

A suggestion was made some time ago that Accordance adopt the same technology as Diogenes for classical texts.

I have zero knowledge on computer technology, so I can't say anything as to how it's done, but Diogenes has the capacity to take untagged texts and parse a word as well as tie it into a lexicon definition (LSJ), and does it with a high degree of accuracy. It was originally designed for parsing TLG texts. Something like that in Accordance, that could scroll with the translations, would be huge, IMHO.

Sounds good. Is this an actual module we’d add in Accordance, or an Accordance software feature we’d need to add? I’m putting together a list of module and feature requests this weekend, so I want to ensure I put it in the correct category.

I was thinking of the technology begind Diogenes.

Take my hand, I'm a stranger in Paradise.  I am like where was Moses when the lights went out.  . . . In the dark.  I assume you speak of some computer program. But what does it do?
