UNCONFIRMED errors and comments from readers:

[4] top of page
dave$ ruby index.rb index_dir/ text_files/

should be

dave$ ruby index.rb text_files/ index_dir/

(This is serious, since having the arguments the other way wipes out all data in text_files.)


[48] 4.2.12.2 Code example;
The code example, which should be different than the previous example just above it, is exactly the same. It should show how to use SpanFirstQuery, instead it simple uses SpanTermQuery again.
