dismax + and -

Hi 

How come if i put in my query q=+wow-kill
<str name="q">wow-kill</str>
<str name="qt">dismax</str>

I will have books which contain wow and kill instead of books which have wow
in the title without kill???
Thanks a lot,

In your example there is no space between +wow -kill so my guess is that
solr is interpreting it as wow-kill all one word.  Then depending on the
field type the tokenizer is probably splitting wow and kill into 2 words
along the -.
