1) This is not java.  Since it's not java, i can't even begin to guess
   what odd excentricities might exist in whatever lucene port you are
   using.
2) If this *were* java then it wouldn't work th way you want it to, since
   you have the tf function returning "1" regardless of the frequency ...
   this method needs to return "0" sometimes, otherwise *everything* is a
   match
3) based on #2, and the resulst you describe i'm guessing your similarity
   isn't being used at all -- check that, add a System.out.println("BOO")
   (or whatever the correlary is in this langauge) to all ofthese methods, =
i
   don't think you'll ever see that output -- start with figuring out why
   your similarity is being used before you try to fix it any more.
4) once you are sure your Similarity is being used, then take a look at
   the IndexSearcher.explain methods --they are your best riend in
   tweaking scoring information.

:
: really? ... that's strange, WildcardQuery uses the disableCoord feature o=

: BooleanQuery.  Do you have an example of what you mean?
:
: : already had implemented my own similarity class that has the coord fixe=

: are you setting your Similarity as the default on your IndexSearcher prio=
