Text Analysis resource files for Shoebox 5
September 2000

Shoebox provides the following files that you can use to
help you organize, analyze, and interlinearize texts:

TextPrep.cct - Consistent Changes table to prepare an
               unmarked text file to be imported into
               Shoebox.

Text.typ     - A database type for general-purpose text. Uses
               \name as the record marker (compatible with
               output of TextPrep.cct). This settings file
               can be a starting point for setting up texts
               for interlinearization.

ScrPrep.cct  - Consistent Changes table to prepare a
               standard format (SF) Scripture file to
               be imported into Shoebox for 
               interlinearization or adaptation.

The Shoebox Setup/Installer program copies these files to
the Text subfolder that is in the Shoebox program folder.
In addition, if existing copies of the settings files are 
not already in your user settings folder (default: 
My Shoebox Settings), it also copies them there.
