Abstract
Methods and systems of the present disclosure provide techniques to improve the display of and merge the results of one or more searches of a computer document in a simple, user-controlled manner. One method involves receiving a query, and searching files to identify any matches to the query. Another method involves visually marking the matches on the display so that the matches can be easily compared to the matches of subsequent queries. A method is also provided in which a user can pin the results of one query to a viewing pane of the display so that the results can be easily compared to the results of subsequent queries.
