+Rank tweak: follow=number will increase mult by number if two terms
+occur next to each other; number-1 if they are one term apart , .. 0
+if they are number a part (all in order). Default is 0 (following
+terms has no effect).
+
+Rank tweak: lead=k will divide mult by 1 + log2(1+k*l) where k is
+value given by lead and l is length from beginning of field where
+term occurs (l=0 for first term, l=1 for second term, ..). Default
+value of k is 0.0.
+
+Rank tweak: length=strategy. length="linear" if mult is to be divided
+by length (existing, default behavior), length="log" if mult is to be 
+divided by log2(1+length), length="none" if mult is not to be affected
+by length.
