Subject:Textbase tools? From:QMS Account <Robert -dot- Morrisette -at- EBAY -dot- SUN -dot- COM> Date:Thu, 6 Oct 1994 07:54:36 +0800
Are there any tools out there (preferably for the Mac) which will allow
me to search the massive amounts of text I accumulate saving useful
information? Currently I have to manually skim all those pages
(saved as text files).
Thanks in advance.

askSAM is a great text retrieval and database system. Includes hypertext
and input templates. Under $100. But only for IBM PCs.
