Dear all,

Does anyone know how to retrieve a document by words in the document that are separated by hyphens?

Reason for my question is this. If I index a single document of a single line that contains words separated by hyphens, I can retrieve that document by any word, but the words separated by hyphens nor the whole phrase including the hyphens.

For example I index a single document with only this sentence

"please subscribe to this mailing-list"

I can retrieve this document by searching for "please" or "subscribe" or "please subscribe", but not by searching for "mailing-list" or "mailing" or "list".

It seems that the words "mailing" and "list" are treated as separate words, since both "mailing" and "list" can be found in the lexicon. However, it seems that they are somehow not connected to the document.

Any help would be appreciated, or is this a bug?

I am using Lucy-0.1.0 from CPAN.

Kind regards,Arjan Widlak
