Its distinguishing +features are indexing/search of semi-structured text (i.e. both free tex +and multiply nested fields), built-in support for XML documents using the +Xerces library, structured queries allowing generalized field/tag paths, +hierarchical result sets (XML only), automatic searching across multiple +databases (allowing modular indexing), TREC format results, efficient +indexing, and relatively low memory requirements during indexing (and the +ability to index documents larger than available memory). Z39.50 support +is available. Other features include Boolean queries, right truncation, +phrase searching, relevance ranking, support for multiple documents per +file, incremental indexing, and easy integration with other UNIX tools, +The architecture is also designed to permit proximity queries; however, +they are not fully implemented at present. + +WWW: http://www.etymon.com/tr.html + +This port also includes the Porter stemming algorithm for suffix +stripping, available at: + http://www.tartarus.org/~martin/PorterStemmer |
