recordsthose

Recordsthose is a neologism that has appeared in niche discussions around data logging, corpus annotation, and software modules. It is not a widely adopted term in major reference works, and its precise meaning can vary by context. Broadly, recordsthose refers to processes or components that selectively record instances of specified items or references within a data stream or text corpus.

Possible meanings and uses include: a data-logging approach that captures only occurrences of predefined entities, terms, or events rather than logging everything; a software module or library named recordsthose that filters an input stream by a predicate and emits records for elements that satisfy the predicate; and a conceptual idea in linguistic or information-management discussions about documenting particular references within a larger body of data.

Implementation often involves defining a filter or predicate and applying it to a stream of inputs. A simple outline might be: recordsthose(stream, predicate) returns a collection of records for each item in stream that satisfies predicate. In practice, this can support targeted annotation, provenance tracking, or audit logging where only relevant items are retained for analysis.

Relation to related concepts includes comparison with general recording, logging, and auditing, with recordsthose distinguished by its emphasis on selective recording of identified items rather than a blanket log. Status remains informal and context-dependent, with no standardized definition in major glossaries.
