Easy way:
comment out in wordparser/parser.l:
[[:alnum:]\./_-]+"/"[[:alnum:]\./_-]+ {
token = tsearch2_yytext;
tokenlen = tsearch2_yyleng;
return FILEPATH;
}

but lexeme as '/usr/local/bin/perl' will be indexed as usr, local, lib, perl.
Remember, after recompile and install, you should reindex text data.

Complex way: write your own parser.
