The WordCruncher Server of the TITUS project makes text corpora of many ancient Indo-European as well as non-Indo-European languages available for all kinds of scholarly investigations. It can be used and accessed by everybody who is equipped with the WordCruncher Viewer program provided by WordCruncher Company (since 2002, the program is distributed by Hamilton-Locke Inc. under the name "Document Explorer"). The viewing program can be downloaded here (free of charge, by courtesy of WordCruncher Co.) in version 5.2 (version running under MS Windows 3.11, MS Windows 95/98, MS Windows NT 4.0 and MS Windows 2000). Using the WordCruncher Viewer program, you will have to enter the URL of the TITUS WordCruncher Server which is titus239.fkidg1.uni-frankfurt.de or, numerically, 141.2.49.239 as the "host name" in the "remote library" dialogue (to be accessed from the "File" menue of the start window).

In order to be able to display and print passages from the TITUS WordCruncher texts, you will have to install the TITUS WordCruncher font package. This can be downloaded free of charge here, provided you declare that you will use both the texts and the fonts for non-commercial purposes only and that you will not give them on to any third parties.

Some of the texts (or text corpora) as present in the TITUS WordCruncher Library cannot be made publicly available for the time being. This is mostly due to copyright reasons. Such texts will be accessible to members of the TITUS working group only, and they can be accessed by them using their TITUS password account. If you are interested in becoming a TITUS member which presupposes the contribution of electronically prepared textual materials, please send a mail to Jost Gippert. Please enter "TITUS" as the subject of the mail.

Our thanks are due to WordCruncher Publishing Inc. for a generous grant which made the establishment of the TITUS WordCruncher Server possible.
