SEARCH THE KRIM RIG LEXICON

Document may take a few seconds to load ...

The Krim RIG (Regional Interest Group) Lexicon is a list of all terms (words) found in the documents of the Krim RIG web pages and possibly linked documents. The Lexicon contains approximately 1/3 million terms. Note: the Lexicon might not contain terms from the most recently posted documents.

Uses: Determine if your term of interest appears in these pages and documents. Find variations in the spelling of your term. And, locate the documents which contain your term.

Caveat: The method for determining what constitutes a term (word) comes with strategic trade-offs due to file types, spelling, formatting, punctuation, character sets, errors, etc. In the creation of our Lexicon, spaces (' ') and special characters (/\[]%+=*$&!#"'`-.,;:(){}<>_|~) were used as term separators.

Search rules: Very few. Case is ignored. No embedded spaces. Two or more characters. If your character string appears in any Lexicon term - it is a match. If you only want terms that start with your character string then place a '^' (caret) in front of your character string. If you only want terms that end with your character string then place a '$' (dollar sign) after your character string.

Technical: Regex (regular expressions) are used to search the Lexicon. Some special characters have special meaning when searching.
