Fair enough. I agree that there is a valid need for returning such tokens as a host. But I think there is definitely a need to break it down into individual words. This will help in cases when a document is missing a space in between the words.


So what we can do is: return the entire compound word as Host and also break it down into individual words. I can put up a patch for this if you guys agree.

Returning multiple tokens for the same word is a feature of the text search parser as explained in the documentation here:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/textsearch-parsers.html

Thanks,
Sushant.

In our uses for full text indexing, it is much more important to
be able to find host name and URLs than to find mistyped names.
My two cents.
