Description

This is the GNU diction and style, free implementations of old standard Unix commands. For some reason, many modern systems lack them. Diction prints wordy and commonly misused phrases. Style analyses surface characteristics of a document, e.g. sentence length and various readability measures.

Both commands support English and German documents.
