View source for Goodiff TOS word frequency

; TOS selected words frequency on timeline 

By Dusan and Natasa, at Goodiff.org workshop with Nicolas Maleve, Michael and Aymeric 

Code returns the frequencies of selected words in TOS defined in path variable. Result is in CSV format, which was then imported to Google Spreadsheets (time pressure: quick & dirty solution).
