Half of the button descriptions (GLI, collector etc) had full stops at end, half didn't. Have added full stops to all so they all match

7#
8# This is the main macro file for translation when creating an
9# interface in another language.
10
11# Under the 'text macros' comments are text macros of the form:
12# _macroname_ {macro value}
13# Everything between the {} is the text to be translated. This text
14# may itself contain macros (i.e. characters other than space between
15# underscore characters, e.g. _about:numdocs_ or _textpage_). These
16# macro names occurring within text shouldn't be translated but should
17# be left as they are. Underscores or curly brackets occurring
18# naturally within the text should be escaped with a leading backslash
19# (i.e. '\_', '\{' or '\}).
20#
21# Comment lines (other than those described above) need not be
22# translated (i.e. any lines beginning with '#', like this line).
23#
24# The simplest way to translate this file is to save it as something
25# else (e.g. french.dm) and work through translating all the text
26# macro values and icon comments.

617<p>You can tell when you have arrived at an individual book or document
618because its title, or an image of the front cover, appears at the top
619left of the page. In some collections, a table of contents appears, while in others
620(eg. when the paged image option is used)
621just the page number is shown, along with a box that allows you to select a
622new page and go forward and backward. In the table of contents, the current
623section heading is in bold face, and the table is expandable -- click on the folders
624to open or close them; click on the open book at the top to close it.</p>
625
626<p>Underneath is the text of the current section. When you have read
627through it, there are arrows at the bottom to take you on to the next
628section or back to the previous one.</p>
629
630<p>Below the title or front-cover image are some buttons. Click on
631<i>_document:textEXPANDTEXT_</i> to expand out the whole text of the current section, or
632book. If the document is large, this could take a long time and use a lot
633of memory! Click on <i>_document:textEXPANDCONTENTS_</i> to expand out the whole table of
634contents so that you can see the titles of all chapters and
635subsections. Click on <i>_document:textDETACH_</i> to make a new browser window for this
636document. (This is useful if you want to compare documents, or read two at
637once.) Finally, when you do a search the words you search for are
638highlighted. Click on <i>_document:textNOHIGHLIGHT_</i> to remove highlighting.</p>

655<p>
656 From the search page, you make a query in these simple steps:<p>
657
658 <ol><li>Specify what items you want to search
659 <li>Say whether you want to search for all or just some of the words
660 <li>Type in the words you want to search for
661 <li>Click the <i>Begin Search</i> button
662 </ol>
663
664<p>When you make a query, the titles of twenty matching documents will be shown.
665There is a button at the end to take you on to the next twenty documents. From
666there you will find buttons to take you on to the third twenty or back to the
667first twenty, and so on. Click the title of any document, or the little button
668beside it, to see it.
669
670<p>A maximum of 50 is imposed on the number of
671 documents returned. You can change this number by clicking the
672 <i>_Global:linktextPREFERENCES_</i> button at the top of the page.<p>
673}
674
675_texthelpquerytermstitle_ {Search terms}
676_texthelpqueryterms_ {
677<p>Whatever you type into the query box is interpreted as a list of words or phrases
678called "search terms." A term is a single word containing only letters and digits, or a phrase consisting of a sequence of words enclosed in double quotes ("..."). Terms are separated by white spaces. If any other characters such
679as punctuation appear, they serve to separate terms just as though they were
680spaces. And then they are ignored. You can't search for words that include
681punctuation.
682
683<p>For example, the query<p>
684 <ul><kbd>Agro-forestry in the Pacific Islands: Systems for Sustainability (1993)</kbd></ul>
685 <p>will be treated the same as<p>
686 <ul><kbd>Agro forestry in the Pacific Islands Systems for Sustainability 1993 </kbd></ul><p>

690For collections built with MGPP a few other options are available.
691
692<ul>
693<li>A <b>*</b> at the end of a query term matches all words <b>starting with</b> that word, e.g. <b>comput*</b> matches all words starting with <b>comput</b>.
694<li><b>/x</b> can be used to give higher weight to one or more of the query terms, eg <b>computer/10 science</b> gives computer 10 times more weight than science when ranking documents.
695</ul>
696}
697
698_texthelplucenesearching_ {
699For collections built with Lucene a few other options are available.
700
701<ul>
702<li><b>?</b> can be used as a wildcard in place of a single letter. For example, <b>b?t</b> will match <b>bet</b>, <b>bit</b> and <b>bat</b> etc.
703<li><b>*</b> can be used as a wildcard in place of multiple letters. For example, <b>comput*</b> matches all words starting with <b>comput</b>.
704</ul>
705Both of these wildcards can be used in the middle of a term, or at the end. They cannot be used at the start of a search term.
706}
707
708_texthelpquerytypetitle_ {Query type}
709_texthelpquerytype_ {
710<p>There are two different kinds of query.
711
712<ul>
713 <li>Queries for <b>all</b> of the words. These look for documents (or
714 chapters, or titles) that contain all the words you have specified.
715 Documents that satisfy the query are displayed, in build order.
716<p>
717
718 <li>Queries for <b>some</b> of the words. Just list some terms that are
719 likely to appear in the documents you are looking for. Documents are
720 displayed in order of how closely they match the query. When determining
721 the degree of match,
722
723 <p><ul>
724 <li> the more search term occurrences a document contains, the closer it matches;
725 <li> terms which are rare in the collection as a whole are more important than common ones;
726 <li> short documents match better than long ones.
727 </ul>
728</ul>
729
730<p>Use as many search terms as you like--a whole sentence, or even a
731whole paragraph. If you specify only
732one term, documents will be ordered by its frequency of occurrence.<p>
733}
734
735_texthelpadvancedsearchtitle_ {Advanced searching using the _1_ search engine}
736
737_texthelpadvancedsearch_ {
738<p>If you have selected advanced query mode (in preferences) you have slightly different search options.
739}
740
741_texthelpadvsearchmg_ {
742Advanced searching in MG collections gives you two options, ranked and boolean.
743A <b>ranked</b> search is exactly the same as the <b>some</b> search descibed in <a href="\#query-type">_texthelpquerytypetitle_</a>.
744<p>_texthelpbooleansearch_
745}
746
747_texthelpbooleansearch_ {
748A <b>boolean</b> search allows you to combine terms
749using &amp; (for "and"), | (for "or"), and ! (for "not"), using parentheses for grouping if desired. The default operator is | (for "or").
750<p>
751For example, <b>snail &amp; farming</b> will match documents which contain both <b>snail</b> AND <b>farming</b>, whereas <b>snail | farming</b> will match documents that contain either <b>snail</b> OR <b>farming</b>.
752<b>snail !farming</b> will match documents that contain <b>snail</b> AND DO NOT contain <b>farming</b>.
753<p>
754More precise queries can be specified using combinations of operators and parentheses. For example, <b>(sheep | cattle) &amp; (farm | station)</b>, or <b>sheep | cattle | goat !pig</b>.
755}
756
757_texthelpadvsearchmgpp_ {
758Advanced searches in MGPP collections use boolean operators. _texthelpbooleansearch_
759<p>The results can be displayed in <b>ranked</b> order, as described for the <b>some</b> search in <a href="\#query-type">_texthelpquerytypetitle_</a>, or in "natural" (or "build") order. The latter is the order that documents were processed during the creation of the collection.
760<p>
761Further operators include <b>NEARx</b> and <b>WITHINx</b>.
762NEARx is used to specify the maximum distance (x words)
763which can separate two query terms for a document to match.
764WITHINx specifies that the second term must occur within x words <i>after</i> the first term. This is similar to NEAR but the order is important. The default distance is 20.
765}
766
767_texthelpadvancedsearchextra_{NOTE: These operators are all ignored if you are searching in simple query mode.}
768
769_texthelpadvsearchlucene_ {
770Advanced searches in Lucene collections use boolean operators. _texthelpbooleansearch_
771}
772
773_texthelpformsearchtitle_ {Fielded searching}
774
775_texthelpformsearch_ {
776<p>Fielded searching provides the opportunity to combine searches across fields. For example, one can search for "Smith" in Title AND "snail farming" in Subject. In simple query mode, each line of the form behaves like a normal single line search. The individual lines of the form are combined using AND (for an "all" search) or OR (for a "some" search). Terms inside the field are also combined the same way. In advanced mode, you can specify different combinations of AND/OR/NOT between the fields using the drop-down lists, and inside a field you can use boolean operators.
777}
778
779_texthelpformstemming_ {The "fold" and "stem" boxes allow you to specify whether the terms inside that field are casefolded or stemmed. These are both switched off by default for advanced form searching.}
780
781_textdatesearch_ {Searching with Dates}
782
783_texthelpdatesearch_ {
784Date search lets you find documents that, as well as matching your search
785terms, are about events within a certain timeframe. You can search for
786documents from a certain year or from a range of years. Note that you do not
787have to have any search terms -- you can search by date alone; and also that
788you do not have to use dates in your search, if you do not type any dates in it
789 is just the same as if the date search didn't exist.<p>
790}
791
792_texthelpdatehowtotitle_ {How to use this feature:}
793_texthelpdatehowto_ {
794<ul>
795 <li>To search for documents about a single year:<p>
796 <ul>
797 <li>Type in any ordinary search terms as you normally would.
798 <li>Type the year you want into the "Start (or only) date" box.
799 <li>If your date is from before the common era (also known as before
800 Christ), choose the "B.C.E" option from the pulldown menu next to that
801 box.
802 <li>Begin your search as you ordinarily would.
803 </ul>
804<p><li>To search for documents about a time period or range of years:<p>
805 <ul>
806 <li>Type in any ordinary search terms as you normally would.
807 <li>Type the earlier date into the "Start (or only) date" box.
808 <li>Type the later date into the "End date" box.
809 <li>Select "B.C.E" option from the pulldown menu next to any date from before
810 the common era (also known as before Christ).
811 <li>Begin your search as you ordinarily would.
812 </ul>
813</ul><p>
814}
815
816_texthelpdateresultstitle_ {The way results of your search work}
817_texthelpdateresults_ {
818Generally speaking a search for documents about the year 1903 will not return documents that, say, reference books written in 1903, just documents about 1903. However, the way that the documents' dates are found, it will return documents that have a date range (for example 1899-1911) that includes 1903, and also those documents which, as part of their text name the century that 1903 is a part of (for example 20th century or twentieth century). This means that for some documents, the dates in your search will not actually appear in the document text. For a range search, all of this applies to every date in the range.<p>

839used by Greenstone for output to the browser -- the software chooses
840sensible defaults, but with some browsers it may be necessary to switch to
841a different encoding scheme to ensure correct character display.
842All collections allow you to
843switch from the standard graphical interface format to a textual one. This
844is particularly useful for visually impaired users who use large screen
845fonts or speech synthesizers for output.
846}
847
848_texthelppresentationprefstitle_ {Presentation preferences}
849_texthelppresentationprefs_ {
850Depending on the particular collection, there may be several options you can
851set that control the presentation.
852
853<p>Collections of Web pages allow you to suppress the Greenstone navigation bar at
854the top of each document page, so that once you have done a search you land at
855the exact Web page that matches without any Greenstone header. To do another
856search you will have to use your browser's "back" button. These collections
857also allow you to suppress Greenstone's warning message when you click a link
858that takes you out of the digital library collection and on to the Web itself.
859And in some Web collections you can control whether the links on the search
860results page take you straight to the actual URL in question, rather than to
861the digital library's copy of the page.
