Hi,
In general, the index structures are in BINARY format and not in TXT format.
This has many advantages for storing and accessing the index.
We could not see the format of the index with text editor.

Hi,
If you chose Lemur as the indexer, you need to read the documentation of LEMUR in order to understand their data structure and then use the appropriate API to exploit the index.
why the indexed files why aren't in format .txt for example why in format .directed.bf .inverted.bf etc
with IRtoolkit can't we see the indexed file in format docId freqDoc freqCorpus poids Token
Best Regards

In IRToolkit, the version of Lemur is 3.1
