   a text search dictionary.  You can change the dictionary's
   template-specific options, or change the dictionary's name or owner.

      The new value to use for a template-specific option.
      If the equal sign and value are omitted, then any previous
      setting for the option is removed from the dictionary,
      allowing the default to be used.
     </p></dd><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>new_name</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>

      The new owner of the text search dictionary.

      The new schema for the text search dictionary.

   Template-specific options can appear in any order.
  </p></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.38.7"><h2>Examples</h2><p>
   The following example command changes the stopword list
   for a Snowball-based dictionary.  Other parameters remain unchanged.
  </p><pre class="programlisting">
ALTER TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY my_dict ( StopWords = newrussian );
</pre><p>
   The following example command changes the language option to <code class="literal">dutch</code>,
   and removes the stopword option entirely.
  </p><pre class="programlisting">
ALTER TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY my_dict ( language = dutch, StopWords );
</pre><p>
   The following example command <span class="quote"><span class="quote">updates</span></span> the dictionary's
   definition without actually changing anything.

</p><pre class="programlisting">
ALTER TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY my_dict ( dummy );
</pre><p>

   (The reason this works is that the option removal code doesn't complain
   if there is no such option.)  This trick is useful when changing
   configuration files for the dictionary: the <code class="command">ALTER</code> will
   force existing database sessions to re-read the configuration files,
   which otherwise they would never do if they had read them earlier.
  </p></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.38.8"><h2>Compatibility</h2><p>
   There is no <code class="command">ALTER TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY</code> statement in
   the SQL standard.
