A few weeks ago I discussed the issue of natural language with respect to meta tagging and content. Following is a message on another list which begins to touch on the issue, though not quite as I described it. --pg *********************************************************************** Date: Thu, 12 Dec 1996 16:41:07 -0600 (CST) From: Public-Access Computer Systems Forum <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Search Engines Which Know French Sender: Public-Access Computer Systems Forum <[log in to unmask]> To: Multiple recipients of list PACS-L <[log in to unmask]> Please respond directly to the author, not PACS-L. Thanks, Linda *----- From: Jack Kessler <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Search engines which know French? Hi PACS-L, I would like very much to receive suggestions as to free / downloadable / simple Website search engines which can read French well. I would like to find things which will accept any one of the three, Acheres or Ache`res or Ach=E8res (that last is a French "e / accent grave" in case it gets garbled here) and in each case find the full set, (Acheres or Ache`res or Ach=E8res) I am experimenting with a few solutions now, but all of them have problems. Recommendations -- sites, addresses -- will be much appreciated.
