Thanks Erik,
What I'm looking for is to return the context of the search result, not
just the ID of the containing document - e.g. when all I input is "yak
culture," I get back the context from the document as a search result,
without having to retrieve the doc itself:
... addressing the fine points of <strong>yak culture</strong>, the
zoosociologists took into account ...
GS out of the box does not appear to support this, as it does not store
the fulltext in the index. So yes, I can highlight stuff, but as it
stands, I don't have the text to work with. IANA Lucene guru, so
correct me if I misunderstand.
