[KinoSearch] Stable version - substring match

[Seredinschi Adi]

Hi,
Sorry to open a topic with a previously discussed matter, but my
problem differs a bit.

I've been searching the past week for an alternative to KinoSearch
0.31 capabilities in substring matching, wildcard support (through
Search::Query::Dialect::KSx) or any other methods found in the
mailing list of KinoSearch (http://www.rectangular.com/kinosearch/)
that would enable a more loose matching on the indexed docs, feasible
in the stable version of KinoSearch.

So far, the only two possibilities seem to be the Tokenizer change at
the indexing time, storing the terms split by their individual
letters, or generating as much substrings as possible for each
individual word in every doc,
but these options are not that handy.

I noticed that in the 0.31 version the substring search is enabled by
default (not sure through what modifications and mechanisms). I was
hoping that the next stable release would be in next few months, but
that doesn't seem to be the case.
Are there any workarounds for this issue, such that I could preserve
stability, and not reduce the speed and scalability very much? Could
something like
http://www.rectangular.com/kinosearch/docs/devel/KinoSearch/Docs/Cookbook/CustomQuery.html
be done in KinoSeach1?

Thanks,
Adi.
