Scripts for searching classics texts
Diogenes is a set of Perl scripts designed to search the Latin and ancient Greek texts published on CD-Rom by the Packard Humanities Institute and the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae. Components include a Perl module, a command-line interface, and a CGI script with an HTTP server that is capable of delivering texts as HTML, PDF or GIF (via LaTeX). You can search by regular expressions, or in the case of the TLG, via the Greek word index. There is also a browser that can search on passages by location.

Software for TLG and PHI CD-ROMsby Darl J. Dumont and Randall M. Smith | |
NEWS: | |
Almost all of Ancient Greek and Latin literature are available on CD-ROM -- Thesaurus Linguae Graecae's CD-ROM #E (ancient Greek texts) contains 1823 authors and collections from the 8th century BC to the 1453 AD. The Packard Humanities Institute's CD-ROM 5.3 contains Latin authors, and also seven versions of the Bible. Packard Humanities Institute also provides a third CD-ROM with collections of Greek Papyri and Inscriptions (CD-ROM 'PHI 7'). None of these CD-ROMs comes equipped with software for viewing and searching; They simply contain the files in 'ISO 9660' format, further encoded in a format known as 'Beta Code'. MUSAIOS provides a means to view the texts in a format similar to the printed page, and to perform searches. MUSAIOS 2010 will run on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7, both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. MUSAIOS 2010 uses the Unicode fonts included with Windows that support Polytonic Greek. The WinGreek font is no longer necessary. | |
