Wonderful IDEA Geoff. I think it's a good solution. Using bit masks we
could improve our disk requirements and indexing and searching could not
get too much lower ... But, if I am not wrong, by this way, the user could
set other 8 fields. For me, the only problem is: are they enough?
And what do you mean by word position, exactly? Is it the position in chars
terms, HTML tags excluded?
That would be all, Thanx and ......
