Xref text

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

I have a large ( 5 meg ) document that I would like to provide word
searching with pattern matching.

I'm I talking hashing here?  If so, I really don't know how to do a good
quality hash. I've been writing software for over 10 years. I have always
used binary searching or some other system for indexing.  But, since I have
been reading this list, I have noticed alot of hashing.  I did study that
in school, and even did a project, but I cannot remember how to begin.

I would like to provide the user with a list of locations. Speed would be
very important. Even words like 'a','the' and 'they' would be candidates.

This is a static document, so I can store the xref after it is built.
Therefore, the build does not have to be fast.
