Having glanced at the Java documentation mentioned in the module documentation (you should note that I haven't actually used the module) I don't think it likely that there is any such thing as a "matching string".

So far as I can see the documents are indexed and the match happens against the index, not against strings as such. In fact even the match text you provide is manipulated before it is used so what is used for matching isn't actually the text you provide in any case. There may be no exact match between the match text you provide and and any of the text anywhere in the document. To that extent it doesn't make sense to return a matched string - there is none.

True laziness is hard work
