#### 19.10.3 Making compound terms searchable

For compound terms that consist of two words separated by a single punctuation character, you can have the search index include each of the individual terms and also the compound term.

To specify which punctuation characters should be considered in identifying compound terms:

    [OmniHelpOptions]
    ; CompoundWordChars = Punctuation marks recognized as connectors of
    ; compound terms when they separate adjacent words.
    CompoundWordChars = :-._+*

The default punctuation characters for compound terms are colon, dash, period, underscore, plus sign, and asterisk.
