In the first phase, 38 Buddhist texts of the period 221-589 AD, totalling 4.4 million characters, can be viewed and searched on the Internet free of charge. The CHANT Database project was started in 1988 as an effort to build a comprehensive electronic database of the entire corpus of ancient Chinese texts. To date, a 33-million-character database of the pre-589 AD traditional texts has been compiled and another of all excavated texts including jiaguwen (甲骨文), jianbo (簡帛), and jinwen (金文), is in the process of being built. A ll texts in the CHANT Database were emended and edited by experts, with detailed and complete notes provided for all emendations. The database uses carefully studied character sets and allows character-string and sentence-pattern Boolean search on all texts or any combination thereof. The database is also released on CD-Rom/floppy disc and in a hardcopy concordance series. To date, 51 volumes of one-word concordance are in print, out of which 26 titles are available on CD-Rom/floppy. The World Wide Web version of the database will be released in the following stages: - 9 0 0 titles of traditional texts from antiquity up to 589 AD, about 32 million characters in total, to be released by phases in 1999; —9 titles of texts on bamboo/silk, 1.2 million characters, and the complete Shang oracular bone inscriptions, 1 million characters, to be released by phases in 2000; —Zhou bronze inscriptions totalling 0.2 million characters to be integrated into the CHANT database and released by the early 2000s.
