The search tool is capable of finding the context of one or multiple search strings in various file formats including txt, rtf, doc, and pdf.

The name of the software, KWAL, is an abbreviation for key word and lines. The program can output several lines of context that match certain user-specified keywords (called “Concordance”), allowing users to view the context in which a given search string appears.
From a linguistic perspective, WinKWAL is an automatic concordance program. However, from a data processing perspective, it is an all-around and very powerful search tool that can handle files of any size, limited only by available memory.
WinKWAL has several features to improve the user experience. The software provides a user-friendly wizard and enables users to manage all types of files to be processed by creating a workspace file. Users can edit and modify search results with the fully functional built-in text viewer.
In addition, WinKWAL allows users to compare and view the frequency count of each search word in a set of files and to perform case-sensitive searches in multiple files. The software also provides full print preview and printing capabilities for keyword search results, making it easy to share information with others.
WinKWAL can be used in various applications, including language teaching and learning, language comprehension, corpus linguistics, text search, content analysis in many disciplines, and literary and linguistic research.
In conclusion, WinKWAL provides a highly customizable and user-friendly search tool that helps users quickly and efficiently find contextual information in a variety of file types.
