Thread: FTS and words near one another

Hi all,

Is there currently anyway in 9.0 to use FTS to search for words that are
next to each other?

For example, I want to search for Abraham next to Lincoln and ignore
things like 'Abraham Johnson who lives in Lincoln Nebraska'.

Oleg and Teodor worked on that at some point and they call it phrase
search.  I don't think it's been commited yet, you can see reference
material in their presentation at pgcon here:
