New User Interface of TS Corpus
Dear TS Corpus users. TS Corpus has moved to its "new user interface". The new interface has new features like:
-- Highlighting lines at result screen
-- Classy display of Query History and Saved Queries screens
-- New Navigation bar with drop-down menus
-- Standard Queries are now triggered by Enter/Return key
-- etc.
The new interface also serves for small displays like smart phones or tablet pc's. The main TS Corpus page now fits on displays as small as 3.2 inches.
As the interface stands on CSS3 it's compatible with all modern browsers like Firefox, Opera, Safari, Iceweasel etc.
Hope you like it...
