Hi Ba3, I think what you're asking is how to use SpanNearQuery's without specifying the number of positions between the Span's. This is answered in the article I linked to - here's the quote:
> In certain situations, it can be convenient to have a SpanAndQuery. > You can easily simulate this using a SpanNearQuery with a distance of > Integer.MAX_VALUE. That is, you can remove the distance restriction by saying that it can be (effectively) infinity. AFAIK, an individual document field can contain no more than Integer.MAX_VALUE terms, so this limitation is not due to the Spans implementation.
