  The <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span> source distribution includes
  several examples of index methods implemented using
  <acronym class="acronym">GiST</acronym>.  The core system currently provides text search
  support (indexing for <code class="type">tsvector</code> and <code class="type">tsquery</code>) as well as
  R-Tree equivalent functionality for some of the built-in geometric data types
  (see <code class="filename">src/backend/access/gist/gistproc.c</code>).  The following
  <code class="filename">contrib</code> modules also contain <acronym class="acronym">GiST</acronym>
  operator classes:
