The Text'O'Mat
Word Dispatcher allows, if needed, to select, sort, enrich and augment
the used dictionary in order to tune your future searches.
You can reach the
Word Dispatcher by the command Dispatch words from the
Text'O'Mat icon
located at the right end of the Windows taskbar.
Clicking on the mouse
right button since the cursor is on the icon, you have access to the menu
of the different Text'O'Mat
modules.
Then
appears the Text'O'Mat Word Dispatcher
interface.

Two alphabetic
lists of words are displayed:
- Retained word
means: word already kept as useful for the searches. Each
word crossed by the disk analyzer is sorted out. If it doesn't belong
to the list of the discarded word (see below), it is considered as to
be retained (or already is) and added to this list. When you try to
reach a word (= to search for a retained word), Text'O'Mat finds
in the list of the analyzed documents, the document(s) containing this
term.
- Discarded word
means: word already sorted as useless for searches. During the
Text'O'Mat analysis, each word from this list coming across,
is discarded. As a matter of fact, you have not to use them in a query
since Text'O'Mat
is not able to find the documents where they are in.
The word dispatching
itself is processed by using the buttons located below each list.
moves one or some words from the retained word list to the discarded word
list. In this way, each time the disk analyzer crosses one of these terms
in a document, it doesn't remember it anymore. So does the Text'O'Mat
Find Documents which will not be able to find any document containing
its term.
moves one or some words from the discarded word list to the retained word
list. From this moment, each time the disks analyzer crosses one of these
terms in a document, it will remember its position. However, the research
of this term cannot be proceed at once after the
Retain operation. In fact the Text'O'Mat Find Documents
module will not find the corresponding document because it was a discarded
word. Thus the analyzer did remember its position. That's why the Word
dispatcher suggests you to reanalyze all the documents after the
retain operation.
