David,

it's not easy to hack tsearch parser, sorry. You can preparse your input
before to_tsquery,to_tsvector.

Hackers,

Is it possible to modify the default tsearch parser so that / doesn't get lexed as a 
"file" token? That is, instead of this:

try=# select * from ts_debug('simple'::regconfig, 'w/d');
alias │    description    │ token │ dictionaries │ dictionary │ lexemes
───────┼───────────────────┼───────┼──────────────┼────────────┼─────────
file  │ File or path name │ w/d   │ {simple}     │ simple     │ {w/d}

Ideally it'd think that / was the same as -:

try=# select * from ts_debug('simple'::regconfig, 'w-d');
     alias      │           description           │ token │ dictionaries │ 
dictionary │ lexemes
─────────────────┼─────────────────────────────────┼───────┼──────────────┼────────────┼─────────
asciihword      │ Hyphenated word, all ASCII      │ w-d   │ {simple}     │ 
simple     │ {w-d}
hword_asciipart │ Hyphenated word part, all ASCII │ w     │ {simple}     │ 
simple     │ {w}
blank           │ Space symbols                   │ -     │ {}           │ 
[null]     │ [null]
hword_asciipart │ Hyphenated word part, all ASCII │ d     │ {simple}     │ 
simple     │ {d}
(4 rows)

Possible? Or would I have to write a completely new parser just to change this 
bit?

Thanks,

David
