YASE is a text indexing and retrieval system. It allows you to index your document collection very easily. All words are indexed and can be optionally stemmed. The query tool supports searching all/any terms and can rank query results by relevance using the cosine measure.

Recent releases


Changes: A port to Win32 (requires MS Visual C++ 6.0 or higher to build).


Changes: Use of a template file to generate HTML output, an improved navigation menu on the query results page, and a few bugfixes (like processing filenames containing spaces). YASE has been tested with catdoc and pdftotext utilities for this release.


Changes: Fixes for a portability problem and incorrect use of va_start() macro (which causes compilation to fail on certain platforms).


Changes: All global identifiers were renamed to avoid conflicts with system-defined identifiers. In the previous release, a few source files contained carriage returns, resulting in compiler errors on some platforms. These files have been fixed.


Changes: Support added for Boolean queries. Documentation updated.
