Indexing
The positions of most terms in
databases are automatically added to
the index. Indexed terms can be found quickly, as
DScribe does
not need to search the database, but merely consults the index.
Stopwords are not included in the index.
Inflected or tagged data file
A text file where each field is prefixed by a unique identifying tag.
Insertion point
In fields, a vertical bar called the insertion point shows where the next character typed at the keyboard will be inserted.
