Hi Geoff,

with extra_word_characters I have a different Problem.

On one hand I want 1998-10-11 to be treated like 19981011. So The document
contains 1998-10-11 and the search for 19981011 shuld give me a result too.
(-> Valid Punctuation)

On the other hand I want a result only if I search for the full string and
no match for 1998.

My dilemma: Valid Punctuation strips the - but splits the string too
            Extra Word Characters doesn't split the string, but doesn't
remove the -

So is there an option to have a combination of both ????

I solved the problem in a different way now, but would be good to know if
there is another option.

This will treat the - character as a word separator. (For example, 
periods in sentences are, by default, treated as a whitespace.)

You want extra_word_chars instead:
