It took me some time to find out, that the methods to_tsvector and to_tsquery can be replaced by own methods. You just need to return a properly formated string and cast it to tsvector. [1] I am happy with the speed. It is much faster than the old solution (htdig). Tsearch2 covers indexing of unicode data only. If you want to index HTML, office formats, ... you need a way to convert them to unicode.
