This sounds potentially intriguing.

Can you please describe what it does in simple (non-weasel) words?

thanks

Weasel Words 1.0

Different students need different modes of teaching to learn effectively.
Although tools currently exist for the evaluation of students'
learning styles or psychological types, few tools exist for analyzing the
language of the classroom. This software provides an open standard
for the coding and subsequent analysis of large amounts of discourse.

WEASEL Words 1.0 combines the capabilities of Perl, databases, and the
WWW. It allows researchers to automate the coding and analysis of
oral and written discourse by separating each paragraph into individual
sentences and applying identification codes to each sentence. These
sentences may then be imported into a database for easy manipulation.
This database, working in conjunction with a WWW server, can then show
the transcription, in context. Each sentence can be individually coded in
greater detail.
