While not quite TACT in terms of functionality, the concordancing
program MonoConc is quite nice, runs in Windows on plain text files,
handles fairly copious libraries at once (it was developed with
linguists in mind), and is intuitive and configurable by the user for
wildcards and such. Check it out: Athelstan software, at

http://www.athel.com/mono.html

(You can download a demo from the site).
