Software to detect plagiarism: WCopyfind

This program examines a collection of document
files. It extracts the text portions of those
documents and looks through them for matching
words in phrases of a specified minimum length.

\What WCopyfind can do: It can find documents that
share large amounts of text. This result may be
that one file is a copy or partial copy of the
other, or that they are both copies or partial
copies of a third document.
