Abstract

The experimental EPISTLE system is intended to provide "intelligent" functions for processing business correspondence and other texts in an office environment. This paper focuses on the initial objectives of the system: critiquing written material on points of grammar and style. The overall system is described, with some details of the implementation, user interface, and the three levels of processing, especially the syntactic parsing of sentences with a computerized English grammar.
