The Rewriter

The Rewriter is useful for maintaining sentences within the KSDB. It uses the functionality of the CLChecker for most of its editing features...see the CLChecker documentation for details.

Extra Text Options

In the Rewriter, you may insert and delete text at your leisure. But if you are editing a query, as opposed to a document, you may not split a sentence into two, or merge two sentences into one.

Extra Menu Options

File

Save

Works like the CLChecker's Save command, but instead of saving the sentences to a file, they are instead written back out into the KSDB.

Keep in mind that when you save a document to the KSDB, no other documents are affected. But when you save the results of a query back to the KSDB, all documents that contain those sentences are affected.

Revert

Works like the CLChecker's Save command, but instead of reading the sentences from a file, they are instead read from the KSDB.

Get Context

Brings up a dialog indicating the context of a sentence. This is useful when editing a query, where the sentence order is not indicative of the order of sentences in a document. If you have a sentence with a pronoun ("it" for instance), and you'd like to know the sentence's context, and what "it" might refer to, you will need this feature.

Close

Closes the Rewriter. It doesn't exit the overall KSDB itself.
