The full text function ft:mark() puts a mark around each of the words that occur in a match, starting from the first matching word to the last, including stop words, except for punctuation characters. Is it possible to check for the kind of characters (or strings) that ft:mark() will skip when marking matches? Or, would it be possible to ask ft:mark() to put one marker for the whole match?
The case I am using it for is to get the sequence of matching words within a match, and sometimes, for long strings, there may be several sequences. A contiguous sequence of marked elements maybe assumed to make up a match, while non contiguous do not. One marker around the match solves the problem, as would detecting characters that are never marked. Regards Lars G Johnsen National Library of Norway
