💖 PM-INVERT(1) 💖

okay bestie, so you know how we're out here building a whole local NCBI PubMed archive like it's our own personal library? yeah. this is one of the little NCBI Entrez Direct User's Manual girlies that does the heavy lifting. pull up a chair. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

pm-invert — get those inverted indexes prepped for a local NCBI PubMed archive 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

pm-invert dir

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the vibe: pm-invert makes unmerged inverted indexes for the NCBI PubMed XML files that are just... sitting there. in the current directory. like, right now. the ones you're literally looking at.

and where does all that output go? into dir. not here. over there. dir is where the goods land, so be a good bestie and give it somewhere to live. 🫶

ngl "unmerged" is doing a lot of work in that sentence — that's just what they're called, the merging is somebody else's whole storyline (pm-merge's, but we don't gatekeep, see below 👀).

and that's the whole thing, short and iconic, no notes. this one came from the fine people at NCBI, dated 2018-10-08, and yeah it's a genuine PM-INVERT(1) moment — periodt. 💜✨
