Hi Henry, Aside from the application of some patches from Andy Lester and some basic refactoring work on KinoSearch's C code, there has been very little development on KinoSearch for the last few weeks. I've just had too much going on -- the insertion of a week at OSCON into an already challenging July schedule overloaded me. Hopefully things will start letting up some this week. A related issue came up on java-user [at] lucene and it offers some reinforcement of the solution discussed earlier (subclassing QueryParser). http://xrl.us/qp9c (Link to www.mail-archive.com) Porting chunks of MultiFieldQueryParser is not straightforward, though, as KinoSearch's QueryParser (hand-rolled parser, tolerant, simple) is fairly different from Lucene's (grammar-based parser (JavaCC), finicky, complex). I had hoped that you would be able to work around your issues using custom-built Queries. That's not the case, huh? :( Marvin Humphrey Rectangular Research http://www.rectangular.com/
