Concorder Pro 1.0 | Gerry Munzing | July 4th, 2005
Hi there,
For everyone who, like me, uses a Mac, I just stumbled across an interesting web page. The URL below will take you to a review of Concorder Pro 1.0, and from there you can access a page where you can download the software for free. I haven't tried it out yet myself, but it looks very useful. If anyone has the time and inclination to give it a test run, let us know how it works. I'd do it myself, but I've got to keep plugging away at research for my AWD assignment!
Best,
Gerry
Oh, yes, here's the web site!

Introduction
Concorder Pro is an easy-to-use Mac OS X concordancer designed for learners and researchers who are interested in Key Word in Context analyses. Specifically, it is free, downloadable software which offers "a formatted version or display of all the occurrences or tokens of a particular type in a corpus" (Kennedy, 1998, pp. 247-251). Consequently, it allows for quick and easy computer-generated studies of collocations, or "the co-occurrence of words" (Stubbs, 2001, p. 29). Provided that a web connection is available, Concorder Pro also supplies the user with instant and free access to online dictionary resources.
