# TangibleCharacters

A list of punctuation characters to treat as part of the word, rather than as word boundaries. By default almost all punctuation characters are treated as word boundaries.

NOTE: You cannot specify spaces, returns, and tabs as `TangibleCharacters`.

This parameter has no effect when `MatchWholeWord` is set to `False`.

For more information on using `TangibleCharacters` to specify punctuation characters to match, or to match punctuation at the start of a match, refer to Knowledge Discovery Expert.

Action: | EduceFromFile, EduceFromText, RedactFromFile, RedactFromText
Type: | String
Default: | The value of the TangibleCharacters configuration parameter
Example: | `TangibleCharacters=-/\@`
