computer searching files in ancient greek, how to?

Textkit user UnsounderFiddle has prepared a table of 80% of the most common principal parts in Greek in an XLSX format, so you don’t have to worry about that PDF wrangling step.

You can either convert the XLSX to CSV, or find a library in your programming language to work with XLSX.
