Use the form below to search for documents in this web containing specific
words or combinations of words. The text search engine will display a weighted
list of matching documents, with better matches shown first. Each list item is a
link to a matching document; if the document has a title it will be shown,
otherwise only the document's file name is displayed. A brief explanation of the query language is available, along with
examples.

The text search engine allows queries to be formed from arbitrary Boolean
expressions containing the keywords AND, OR, and NOT, and grouped with
parentheses. For example:
- information retrieval
- If you type in the text above, you will get documents containing 'information'
or 'retrieval'
- information or retrieval
- If you type in the text above, you will get documents containing 'information'
or 'retrieval'
- information and retrieval
- If you type in the text above, you will get documents containing both 'information'
and 'retrieval'
- information not retrieval
- If you type in the text above, you will get documents containing 'information'
but not 'retrieval'
- (information not retrieval) and WAIS
- If you type in the text above, you will get documents containing 'WAIS',
plus 'information' but not 'retrieval'
- web*
If you type in the text above, you will get documents containing words
starting with 'web'. The asterisk is a wildcard and any character(s) may be
returned in its place. You may retrieve 'weber', 'web', 'webster' etc...
