So, I figured I'd share a commercial tool that's turned freeware recently. I've been analyzing my own writing to figure out what it conveys and it's more accurate than I'd expect for free without a human being. I love data mining and analysis software. I'm not selling this, I'm not affiliated with them or anything and I'm not advertising it but if you're actually ripping wikipedia or working with XML and large amounts of text, most likely you'd be interested in this. I've been running it on Wikipedia pages and other websites as well, too. I've generated very, very interesting and cool results with it. Without further adieu and long-windedness,
Designed for Information Science, Market Research, Sociological Analysis and Scientific studies, Tropes is a Natural Language Processing and Semantic Classification software that guarantees *pertinence and quality in Text Analysis*.

There are French, Brazilian, Portugese and Spanish versions. It's definitely not a waste of your time to test it out. I'm going to be use it often as I write often for myself and as a freelancer. I'm also using it to proof and edit a book I've been writing for the past month, too before I publish it in a few weeks. It's too bad there's only a Windows binary version and no source code available.
