  • NEW (feature): a 'report.csv' file is now created at the end of the corpus creation process, which contains a detailed report on the corpus creation process;
  • NEW (feature): you can also create a corpus using the “Local queries” mode: make your own Google queries, save them to a folder and let BootCaT extract URLs from them and build a corpus;
