Text (readability) analysis tool written in Python.

Features

~~~~~~~~

Drat is a tool that analyzes reading texts and produces a brief report

which provides the following information:

- the Dale-Chall readability score.

- the Coleman-Liau Readability Index.

- the number of uncommon words (based on the General Service List).

- a list of all of these uncommon words (if you choose the verbose option).

Drat supports **docx**, **odt**, **ods**, **odp** files as well as text

files and urls.

You can also analyze multiple texts / links by creating a text file

with the filenames / links written in it.

A simple example of how drat can be used in a web application is provided in the
