Matching Whole Strings

See figure 5. Matches between sub-strings can be grouped at the whole string level. Again matching is based firmly on the left hand image. The representation of matches between whole strings is very different. The edge string property MLIST refers to a list of lists of matches, each sub list is associated with a particular edge string from the right image. The integer value of the pointer to the string in question is used for the type field of the appropriate element in the top level list (this is used to group and discriminate matches to the same edges string).
