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# Under the 'icons' comments are macros concerned with displaying
22# icons which themselves contain text.
23# Above each macro (or group of macros) for an icon is a comment line
24# that looks something like '## "HOME" ## top_nav_button ## chome ##'.
25# The first field of the comment ("HOME" in this case) is the text
26# that appears in the english version of the icon. This is the text
27# that must be translated, nothing needs to be done to the macros
28# themselves. The other two fields of the comments are used by
29# automatic icon generating software which reads the newly translated
30# file and generates appropriate icons.
31#
32# Comment lines (other than those described above) need not be
33# translated (i.e. any lines beginning with '#', like this line).
34#
35# The simplest way to translate this file is to save it as something
36# else (e.g. french.dm) and work through translating all the text
37# macro values and icon comments.

697because its title, or a photograph of the front cover, appears at the top
698left of the page. In some collections this is accompanied by a table of
699contents, while others contain just the number of the current page along
700with a box that allows you to select a new page and go forward and
701backward. In the table of contents, the current section heading is in bold

739<p>
740 From the search page, you make a query in these simple steps:<p>
741
742 <ol><li>Specify what items you want to search
743 <li>Say whether you want to search for all or just some of the words
744 <li>Type in the words you want to search for
745 <li>Click the <i>Begin Search</i> button
746 </ol>
747
748<p>When you make a query, the titles of twenty matching documents will be shown.
749There is a button at the end to take you on to the next twenty documents. From
750there you will find buttons to take you on to the third twenty or back to the
751first twenty, and so on. Click the title of any document, or the little button
752beside it, to see it.
753
754<p>A maximum of 100 is imposed on the number of
755 documents returned. You can change this number by clicking the
756 <i>preferences</i> button at the top of the page.<p>
757
758<div class="divbar">&nbsp;</div>
759<a name="query-terms"></a>
760<h3>Search terms</h3>
761
762<p>Whatever you type into the query box is interpreted as a list of words
763called "search terms." Each term contains nothing but alphabetic characters
764and digits. Terms are separated by white space. If any other characters such
765as punctuation appear, they serve to separate terms just as though they were
766spaces. And then they are ignored. You can't search for words that include
767punctuation.
768
769<p>For example, the query<p>
770 <ul><kbd>Agro-forestry in the Pacific Islands: Systems for Sustainability (1993)</kbd></ul>
771 <p>will be treated the same as<p>
772 <ul><kbd>Agro forestry in the Pacific Islands Systems for Sustainability 1993 </kbd></ul><p>

774<div class="divbar">&nbsp;</div>
775<a name="query-type"></a>
776<h3>Query type</h3>
777
778<p>There are two different kinds of query.
779
780<ul>
781 <li>Queries for <b>all</b> of the words. These look for documents (or
782 chapters, or titles) that contain all the words you have specified.
783 Documents that satisfy the query are displayed, in alphabetical
784 order.<p>
785
786 <li>Queries for <b>some</b> of the words. Just list some terms that are
787 likely to appear in the documents you are looking for. Documents are
788 displayed in order of how closely they match the query. When determining
789
790 the degree of match,
791
792 <p><ul>
793 <li> the more search terms a document contains, the closer it matches;
794 <li> rare terms are more important than common ones;
795 <li> short documents match better than long ones.
796 </ul>
797</ul>
798
799<p>Use as many search terms as you like--a whole sentence, or even a
800whole paragraph. If you specify only
801one term, documents will be ordered by its frequency of occurrence.<p>

806
807_texthelpdatesearch_ {<h2>_textdatesearch_</h2>
808Date search lets you find documents that, as well as matching your search
809terms, are about events within a certain timeframe. You can search for
810documents from a certain year or from a range of years. Note that you do not
811have to have any search terms -- you can search by date alone; and also that
812you do not have to use dates in your search, if you do not type any dates in it
813 is just the same as if the date search didn't exist.<p>
814
815<div class="divbar">&nbsp;</div>
816<a name="datesearch-howto"></a>
817<h3>How to use this feature:</h3>
818<ul>
819 <li>To search for documents about a single year:<p>
820 <ul>
821 <li>Type in any ordinary search terms as you normally would.
822 <li>Type the year you want into the "Start (or only) date" box.
823 <li>If your date is from before the common era (also known as before
824 Christ), choose the "B.C.E" option from the pulldown menu next to that
825 box.
826 <li>Begin your search as you ordinarily would.
827 </ul>
828<p><li>To search for documents about a time period or range of years:<p>
829 <ul>
830 <li>Type in any ordinary search terms as you normally would.
831 <li>Type the earlier date into the "Start (or only) date" box.
832 <li>Type the later date into the "End date" box.
833 <li>Select "B.C.E" option from the pulldown menu next to any date from before
834 the common era (also known as before Christ).
835 <li>Begin your search as you ordinarily would.
836 </ul>

840<a name="datesearch-results"></a>
841<h3>The way results of your search work</h3>
842
843Generally 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>

855<h3 align=left>Collection preferences</h3>

859subcollections to include in your searches on the Preferences page.

862<a name="lang-prefs"></a>
863<h3 align=left>Language preferences</h3>
864
865Each collection has a default presentation language, but you can switch to
866a different language if you like. You can also alter the encoding scheme
867used by Greenstone for output to the browser -- the software chooses
868sensible defaults, but with some browsers better visual results can be used
869by switching to a different encoding scheme. All collections allow you to
870switch from the standard graphical interface format to a textual one. This
871is particularly useful for visually impaired users who use large screen
872fonts or speech synthesizers for output.
873
874<div class="divbar">&nbsp;</div>
875<a name="pres-prefs"></a>
876<h3 align=left>Presentation preferences</h3>
877
878Depending on the particular collection, there may be several options you can
879set that control the presentation.
880
881<p>Collections of Web pages allow you to suppress the Greenstone navigation bar at
882the top of each document page, so that once you have done a search you land at
883the exact Web page that matches without any Greenstone header. To do another
884search you will have to use your browser's "back" button. These collections
885also allow you to suppress Greenstone's warning message when you click a link
886that takes you out of the digital library collection and on to the Web itself.
887And in some Web collections you can control whether the links on the "Search
888Results" page take you straight to the actual URL in question, rather than to
889the digital library's copy of the page.
890
891<div class="divbar">&nbsp;</div>
892<a name="search-prefs"></a>
893<h3 align=left>Search preferences</h3>
894<p>Two pairs of buttons control the kind of text matching in the searches that
895you make. The first set (labeled "case differences") controls whether upper and
896lower case must match. The second ("word endings") controls whether to ignore
897word endings or not. It is possible to get a large query box, so that you can
898easily do paragraph-sized searching. It is surprisingly quick to search for
899large amounts of text.
900
901<p>For example, if the buttons <i>ignore case differences</i> and
902<i>ignore word endings</i> are selected, the query<p>
903 <ul><kbd>African building</kbd></ul>
904 <p>will be treated the same as<p>
905 <ul><kbd>africa builds</kbd></ul><p>
906 because the uppercase letter in "African" will be transformed to
907 lowercase, and the suffixes "n" and "ing" will be removed from
908 "African" and "building" respectively (also, "s" would be removed from
909 "builds").
910
911<p>You can switch to an "advanced" query mode which allows you to combine terms
912using AND (&), OR (|), and NOT (!). This allows you to specify more precise
913queries. You can turn the search history feature, which shows you your last few
914queries. This makes it easy to repeat slightly modified versions of previous
915queries. Finally, you can control the number of hits returned, and the
916number presented on each screenful.
