Yes, this was the approach Geoff suggested back in 2001, and I think that's the way it should be done, rather than automatically chaining them. See http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg02598.html BTW, that should be search_algorithm, not match_method. I suppose we might even want to allow even more complex chaining, e.g.: synonyms->endings->accents:0.4, or even double-dipping to further expand things in case things were missed the first time around, e.g.: synonyms->endings->accents->synonyms->endings:0.4 Or maybe we could add an iteration count to the syntax, to get it to repeat the whole chain. -- Gilles R.
