TUSTEP (Tubingen System of Text Processing Tools) is a free, open source, widely-used toolbox for text processing. It is aimed at scholarly audiences, can work with texts in both latin and non-latin scripts, and is primarily designed for humanites applications. Its modules include data capture, information retrieval, text collation, text analysis, sorting and ordering, rule-based textual manipulation, data export and typesetting. The user manual is only available in German at this time. This tool has been in continuous development since the 1960s.

The classical TUSTEP is a line based, parameter-driven programming language.

But there is also TUSCRIPT, the highly developed, extremely flexible and efficient scripting language of TUSTEP, in particular suitable for processing text data, especially in SGML/XML. Examples for programming with TUSCRIPT can also be found in the Rosetta Code Wiki (http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Category:TUSCRIPT).

In addition, there is TXSTEP, the XML-based interface for TUSTEP.
