1. A method for determining emotive tone in text, the method comprising:
- matching text in a text file with text entries in a control file database, wherein formatting attributes include textual and non-textual indicators;
receiving a first set of emotive values associated with the matching text entries from the control file database;
calculating an emotive score with the first set of emotive values;
assigning the emotive score to the text file;
displaying the emotive score of the text file;
determining formatting attributes of the text by;
associating a second set of emotive values stored in the control file database with the determined formatting attributes of the text;
calculating an updated emotive score with the first set of emotive values and the second set of emotive values;
updating the assigned emotive score of the text file;
displaying the emotive score of the text file;
highlighting the matching text and the determined formatting attributes of the text;
receiving a first input from a user, wherein the first input includes selecting a highlighted text portion;
displaying the emotive value associated with the selected highlighted text portion responsive to receiving the first input from the user;
displaying a text replacement option associated with the selected highlighted text portion, wherein the associated text replacement option is stored in the control file database;
replacing the selected highlighted text portion with the text replacement option responsive to receiving a second input from the user, wherein the second input includes selecting the text replacement option;
displaying a second option, wherein the second option includes updating entries in the control file database associated with the selected highlighted text portion; and
updating the entries in the control file database associated with the selected highlighted text portion responsive receiving a third input from the user, wherein the third input includes selecting the second option.
