zebra is
a) a z3950 data-rertieval-interface for emilda (and also maybe others !!!)
b) a general-purpose indexer (and so must be told what data in which
format to process)
i admit that zebra is somewhat a sick to configure program - i for
myself dont have any clues but i suspect it to be very powerful if
understood well (but i never had the time and mood)
1) there is a file called ** usmarc.abs ** which tells zebra which
marc-fields to index how (remember: indexed data is marc)
2) there is a file called ** bib1.att ** which does the
name/number-translation of so-called bib1-attributes which are the
entities searched in z3950-protocol
a) find the line in bib1.att which maps the number 8 :
"att 8 ISSN"
note : the name might be different
b) add a line to usmarc.abs to tell zebra to index the marc-field 22
which holds the issn as word-index and present it as attribute 8
"elm 022 ISSN !:w,!:p,!:s,"
note : effectively field 022 will be indexed as word,phrase,substring
and presented as attribute 8

please anyone to correct me if this is wrong ?
