That search won't show Text::Metaphone. IMHO a much better (or more usable in Dutch) module than Text::SoundEx YMMV Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn	[reply]

Soundex is a really bad algorithm except for mechanically (i.e. using sticks and cardboard) comparing short(!) names(!) commonly in use in the USA. See Re^2: Search for similar strings - to standardise for details. Alexander -- Today I will gladly share my knowledge and experience, for there are no sweeter words than "I told you so". ;-)	[reply]

Maybe Text::Soundex is useful That looks very useful and the sort of thing I was searching for. The Synopsis looks promising. Thank you	[reply]
