Searching Dialog: Select &Select Steps Commands

Scope

• select (s) is the basic command that tells the computer that you want to search for the words following that command.
  • Example:
    • s california

Select Steps

• The command, though, is best used in the form (ss) or select steps if you are searching on two or more terms.
  • The reason is that select steps will display each individual term as a set of results as well as the set of combined terms.
  • This is useful if you want to recombine terms for a subsequent search.
  • Example:
    • ss california and earthquakes
    • This will produce (the numbers below are not real):
      • s1 california 123829
      • s2 earthquakes 9422
      • s3 california and earthquakes 2380
