    Dear Jean Veronis,

    Thanks for the link to the constitution concordancer. I followed the link
    to the original documents and got a little bit frustrated. The format
    doesn't seem to be consistent for all languages (if you click on the
    English button, for example, you en up on a different page and the links
    to other languages from that page are broken). Most of the documents are
    also in PDf only which is a little bit annoying. How did you download the
    documents for your concordancer? I would like to get all texts for all
    languages in one batch run. Is there a page with plain text only (or
    maybe some simple HTML) with the same format for all official languages?
    That would be great!

    kind regards,

    Jörg
