Full text search
In text retrieval, full text search refers to techniques for searching a single computer-stored document or a collection in a full text database. Full-text search is distinguished from searches based on metadata or on parts of the original texts represented in databases (such as titles, abstracts, selected sections, or bibliographical references).
In a full-text search, a search engine examines all of the words in every stored document as it tries to match search criteria (for example, text specified by a user). Full-text-searching techniques became common in online bibliographic databases in the 1990s. Many websites and application programs (such as word processing software) provide full-text-search capabilities. Some web search engines, such as AltaVista, employ full-text-search techniques, while others index only a portion of the web pages examined by their indexing systems.
Indexing
When dealing with a small number of documents, it is possible for the full-text-search engine to directly scan the contents of the documents with each query, a strategy called "serial scanning." This is what some tools, such as grep, do when searching.

Folie
by: LocustSomething that you said is living in my head
Grows nightly inside me
And though my dream exists, memory persists
To fight me, despite me
Silver words you spoke, under your breath
Making whirlwinds in my head
there is a light shining for you, he said,
that doesn't shine here for me too, he said
So passion echoes doubtfully
And falls against the walls of my dream
Through open pores, tiny trickles to the sea
The story as is read is hanging by a thread
Tread lightly, slightly, so lightly
And, leaving me exposed, the folie I proposed
Has fooled me, ruled me, ridiculed me
Silver words ' spoke, under my breath
Making whirlwinds in my head
do they really deserve you? , he said
have my words really fooled you? , he said
And passion echoes doubtfully
And falls against the walls of my dream
