Description: A text indexing and word search program
 Perspic is a tool for the study of documents that change 
 infrequently if at all, e.g. sacred texts, ancient texts of
 historical interest, etc.  Perspic build a fully indexed and 
 compressed version of the original text files.  Word search 
 results are summarized by line.  Selecting a given line opens 
 the full text about the given word.  Other features include
 dictionary definition of words, scanning of word derivatives,
 and saving selected quotations with their accompanying 
 attribution.

Description: Some pre-indexed texts for perspic
 The examples provided here include selections from the world's
 sacred literature, including the King James Bible, several 
 translations of the Holy Quran, the Bhaghavad-Gita, selected
 Buddhist Sutras, and selections from the Baha'i Writings.  A
 thesaurus is also provided, as well as an Arabic-English
 inter-linear Quran in the encoding processed by ArabTeX.  
 Hopefully perspic might evolve into a tool fit for the study 
 of translations.
