If any group member has heard of TOM or any program like it please
link me. TOM was written about 20 years ago for IBM 360-75 mainframes. It
was an artificial intelligence interface between the user and the
computer such that the user could in whatever his language was,
define what was a sentence and what were words and what each word
meant. It produced a spin-off which was a profile of the syntax and
the dictionary for the user's idiolect (or personal dialect). A
couple of years ago there was an article that a similar program had
been made for vax or pc or spark. It is or was used in discourse or
text linguistics or for any lesser used language in which it is
necessary to investigate the lexical morphology. RC
