SET POSTINGS

The command SET POSTINGS ON turns on the display of the number of postings (i.e., the total occurrences of a term in the records retrieved). Postings are displayed in addition to the number of unique items shown in the "Items" column. Postings are displayed only in EXPAND and DISPLAY SETS commands; they are not shown following a SELECT command. To cancel the request, enter SET POSTINGS OFF.

The system default is POSTINGS OFF.

• To turn on postings display:

?set postings on
