SWISHers:
I'm just getting started with SWISH-E 2 (swish-e-2.0.5) on Windows 2000
built with gcc (2.95.3-1)/cygwin. On the whole, things seem to be working
well. The test suite works and I have been able to build and search some
indexes. However, I am having a curious problem with wildcards.
Most wildcard searches work exactly as they should. Examples include:
swish-e -w 'deposit*' -f UNCLOS
swish-e -w 'tec*' -f UNCLOS
swish-e -w 'pa*' -f UNCLOS
swish-e -w 'pq*' -f UNCLOS
However:
swish-e -w 'prospect*' -f UNCLOS
swish-e -w 'pr*' -f UNCLOS
swish-e -w 'p*' -f UNCLOS
swish-e -w 'te*' -f UNCLOS
swish-e -w 't*' -f UNCLOS
all hang.
Any thoughts? Is this a problem with SWISH-E 2, or is it a problem with my
platform?
