Eduction 23.2

# NonGreedyMatch

Set `NonGreedyMatch` to `True` to configure Eduction to return the shortest match that it finds. In this case, when Eduction finds two matches that start at the same word, from two different entities, Eduction returns only the shortest match.

Setting `NonGreedyMatch` to `True` implicitly turns off AllowOverlaps and AllowMultipleResults. If you have set these parameters, `NonGreedyMatch` takes precedence.

For more information on how to configure the Eduction matching behavior using `NonGreedyMatch`, see Select Matches.
