I'm doing some research on text database systems (both productivity tools
and archiving systems). I'm looking into primarily commercial system, not
acedemia-based super powerful systems (e.g. hypertext). If you have
had any experiences with such systems on PCs, minis, etc. please let know
what you thought.
Please mail to me, I'll summarize to the net.
Thanks,
davido

I've had the recent pleasure to play with INMAGIC from INMAGIC Corp. 2067 Massachusetts Ave. Cambridge, MA 02140. A very powerful document retrieval system with an elaborate search language, and flexible user-defined indexing capabilities. I would certainly give this one a look. Of course if you wanted a general purpose RDBMS that also handled text real well, you might check out Revelation, (or Pick) but Inmagic is a niche product, and text retrieval (so called library searches) are its niche...
