<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>
<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>
<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>
It searches the text for subtle,<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b> short and long-range word or word string repetitions that exist in human texts,<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b> but not in many classes of computer-generated texts.<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>

From my few tests <b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>(it needs quite a big chunk of text)<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b> it isn't very acurate.<b style="color:#FFA34F"></b>
