In the case of an empty/null search, the first N characters would be returned as the summary snippet. What would be the best way to configure Solr and index content so that at least 1 snippet is always returned, even for null *:* search? It looks like this is happening on the search-lucene.com search -- http://search-lucene.com/?q=*%3A* How was this accomplished? Thanks! Michael
