Thetis
is my new project on statistical analysis of the Homeric and Hesiodic Epic.

Writing with ancient scripts and making your texts available to text editors of multiple platforms (Windows, Linux/Unix, Macintosh etc.) is unfortunately still not a very easy task. KORAIS is a word processor and email application with an integrated input method, that will help you address exactly this problem. No installation is needed. You can use and distribute KORAIS totally FREE of charge (check the licence).
Here is a summary of what KORAIS allows you to do:
