Description
LISTCONN produces a display sorted by connective code. Connectives that are synonyms (such as EACH and EVERY) have the same code. Additional connectives with the Editor or with the COPY command.
The code CZ indicates a connective that is ignored in an INFO/ACCESS query. CZ connectives (such as THE and A) are known as throwaway connectives; they simply make a query more like an English-language sentence.
