 +==== Sorting results ====
 +
 +We will now sort the results: click on //Sort// and then select //A-Z// -> //by right context//. The concordance lines will be sorted by right context: you'll notice that punctuation marks (exclamation points, parentheses, etc.) appear first in the sort order.
 +
 +You can also sort by **left context** or by **match** (this is only useful if you are not looking for an exact phrase like we did in this example). If you choose //Z-A// instead of //A-Z// results will be sorted in **inverted alphabetical order**.
 +
 +Finally **unsorted** restores the original order of the concordance lines (i.e. the order in which they appear in the corpus).

 +
 +==== Context size ====
 +
 +Carcass by default displays 10 tokens on either side of the match, it is possible to increase the context size by clicking on the "+" button in the //Context size// section of the toolbar.
 +
 +The context increases to 20, 50 and 100 tokens on both sides every time the "+" button is clicked. It decreases by an equal amount every time the "-" button is clicked (to a minimum of 10 tokens).
