1. A method for indexing at least one segment of at least one stored document, said method comprising the steps of: displaying a first document on a display; selecting a first segment from said displayed first document using a selecting device, said first segment having first coordinates and bounds; selecting a first index from storage; storing said first coordinates and bounds of said first segment in said first index; retrieving said first index, said first index containing said coordinates and bounds of said first segment; and displaying said first segment as an indexing entry within said first index by using said coordinates and bounds of said first segment to retrieve said first segment from said first document.

The method of claim 1 comprising the additional steps of: displaying a second document on said display; selecting a second segment from said displayed second document using said selecting device, said second segment having second coordinates and bounds; selecting said first index from storage; storing said second coordinates and bounds of said second segment in said first index; retrieving said first index, said first index containing said first coordinates and bounds of said first segment and said second coordinates and bounds of said second segment; and displaying said first and second segments as indexing entry within said first index by using said coordinates and bounds of said first and second segments to retrieve said first and second segments from said first and second documents.
