Hi all,

The docs for tsearch don't seem to make it very clear about its use of
dictionaries. If anyone could answer the following questions I'd be very
grateful!

1) Do I need to specify a locale name? And if so what should I set it
to?

2) What exactly is mean't to be in the file that contain the endings of
words?

3) Is it better to have as big a dictionary as possible? Does this make
the text index more efficient?

TIA!

Yours Unwhettedly,
Robert John Shepherd.
