Arguments

text.var

The text variable.

grouping.var

The grouping variables. Default NULL generates one word list for all text. Also takes a single grouping variable or a list of 1 or more grouping variables.

stopwords

A vector of stop words to remove.

alphabetical

If TRUE the output of frequency lists is ordered alphabetically. If FALSE the list is ordered by frequency rank.

cut.n

Cut off point for reduced frequency stop word list (rfswl).

cap

logical. If TRUE capitalizes words from the cap.list.

cap.list

Vector of words to capitalize.

cap.I

logical. If TRUE capitalizes words containing the personal pronoun I.

rm.bracket

logical If TRUE all brackets and bracketed text are removed from analysis.
