[basex-talk] Fuzzy full-text query

Hello,

I am trying to match a local dataset against entries in a full-text index. I ran into the following case and was confused about the fuzzy querying performance:

<x>Baxter, Richard, 1615-1691</x>[text() contains text "Baxter, Richard, 615-1691" using fuzzy]

The BaseX documentation says that the default fuzzy search will preserve a minimum of 1 error. However, the query above returns no result. If I add the "errors" parameter with a value of 1, it does work:

<x>Baxter, Richard, 1615-1691</x>[text() contains text "Baxter, Richard, 615-1691" using fuzzy 1 errors]

Is this expected behavior?

Thanks in advance, Tim
