Abstract

Presents a guide to evaluating commercial text search and retrieval programs. Gives an overview of text searching and discusses operating environments, features commonly found in commercial text-search packages, and features that distinguish one text-search from each other e.g. platforms, size of database, query-formulation capabiblities, hypertext capabilities, real-time data-entry and classification, and browsing aids
