+Unfortunately, full-text search has no user-tunable parameters yet
+(but adding some is very high in our TODO). But if one has @strong{MySQL}
+source distribution (@xref{Installing source}.) he can somewhat alter

+But note, that full-text search was carefully tuned up for the best
+search effectivity. Modifying default behaviour will, most probably,
+make search results only worse. Do not play with @strong{MySQL} sources,
