Mile, Any Analyzer that uses a Tokenizer that throws out non-characters will do. For example, take a look at SimpleAnalyzer. It uses LowerCaseTokenizer. If you read the javadoc for LowerCaseTokenizer, I think you will see it suits you.

I am currently trying to index latin language documents, in which missing letters are appended to words by using square brackets, like this : "[divinit]atis". Could you tell me please which would be the best practice to remove the brackets before adding into the Lucene index? (in the example to store the word "divinitatis"). Thank you a lot, Mile Rosu --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
