Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Synonym Dictionary - Numbers,

[Mike Rylander]

Josh,

To cover numbers, it looks like you just need to add dictionaries (I
probably wouldn't use just one for everything) for uint, etc.  Note,
you can stack dictionaries.

As for & (along with |, !, and maybe parens), it may be best to simply
map those to some well-known token in search_normalize() that's very
unlikely to be used in the real world.  Perhaps some unicode
codepoint, like ☃ and friends.  Those are special characters used by
tsearch itself.

HTH,
