which tokenizer removes * characters?

["Robert A. Decker" <de...@robdecker.com>]

It seems that one of the analyzers that comes with lucene removes *
characters. It's either the StandardFilter, LowerCaseFilter, or
PorterStemFilter.

However, it doesn't seem to be documented that one of these would remove
that character...

Does anyone have a good strategy for allowing users to use a mix of
wildcards and normal searches on a field? I'm having a problem in that my
analyzer isn't called if there's a wildcard, but if I manually run the
search text through my analyzer the wildcard is removed...

thanks,
rob
