The first step is to generate an auxiliary table containing all

- CREATE TABLE words AS

-
- Where 'documents' is the table that contains the Tsearch2 index
- column 'vector', of type 'tsvector'.

+ stat('SELECT to_tsvector(''simple'', bodytext) FROM documents');
+
+ Where 'documents' is a table that has a text field 'bodytext'
+ that TSearch2 is used to search. The use of the 'simple' dictionary
+ with the to_tsvector function, instead of just using the already
+ existing vector is to avoid creating a list of already stemmed
+ words. This way, only the original, unstemmed words are added
+ to the word list.
Next, create a trigram index on the word column:
