aaF: How can I retrive a list of terms for a document's field?

Hi all,

my Rails 2.3.2 model uses acts_as_ferret. I need to break down the
contents of a field into a list of words, which is almost the same
Ferret did when indexing the field. Can I somehow access the
TermVectors for this particular document to use the same list of words
that Ferret used for indexing?

Kind regards,

Christian

p.s.: Sorry for two separate messages, that’s to have two individual
subject lines.
