fields param not documented in search

[clintongormley]

In http://www.elasticsearch.com/docs/elasticsearch/rest_api/query_dsl/query_string_query/ you give an example using the fields parameter, but don't explain how it is used and how it differs from default_field

Isn't it documented? There is a whole section about running against multiple fields, and the options you can set when running with it.

[clintongormley]

Where? it's not on that page, which is where I would expect to see it.

Starting from "The query_string query can also run against multiple fields...".

True :)
