Re: tsearch2: Error: Word is too long

Bad form to reply to my own posting i know but -

I notice that the integer dictionary can accept MAXLEN for the longest
number that is considered a valid integer. Can i set MAXLEN for the en
dictionary to be the longest word i want indexed?

I think i'd need to create a new dictionary...?
