Enable FTS in SQLite

Is it possible to use sqlite3's FTS capability in PB? It is not enabled by default and some of my use cases could benefit from it. I'd like a cross-platform example if it is possible to enable it.

Thank you in advance.

What makes you think it isn't enabled? A quick look says to me that it is and I can't think of any obvious reasons why Fred would choose to omit it.
For me, on 6.30B4, "PRAGMA compile_options;" returns:-

Code: Select all

[15:09:40] ENABLE_FTS3
[15:09:40] ENABLE_FTS3_PARENTHESIS
[15:09:40] ENABLE_FTS4

Great, it might be how I attempted to access it. Good to know.
