lq-text Description

lq-text is a full-text retrieval package. lq-text is a full-text retrieval package. The project makes an inverted index of your files, and can then later find words or phrases in those files. This is also sometimes called a full-text (or fulltext) database, or an information retrieval system. I don't use those terms because lq-text is not ACID-compliant (database), and the phrase "information retrieval" seems overly broad.lq-text can produce extracts from the files it matches, for example highlighting every occurrence of matched words, or producing one-line keyword-in-context (KWIC) indexes.A higher level summary might say that lq-text is a search engine used in text information retrieval systems, based on a fulltext index.Commands include:lqaddfile -- add files to the database at any timelqfile -- information about files that have been indexedlqword -- information about wordslqphrase -- look up phraseslqrank -- combine phrase searches, and sort the resultslqquery -- supports wildcards in phrases, after running "sortwids"sortwids -- run after lqaddfile to enable lqquerylqkwic -- creates keyword-in-context indexes (this is fun!)lqshow -- show the matches on the screen (uses curses)lqwordlist -- search the stored vocabularylqtext -- curses-based front end.lq -- shell-script front endlqcat -- fetch and print files by lq-text FID or document name
