I am developing an
server side perl script that needs to find all words similar to a certain
work...
so if I input the
word "Brooke", i would like to receive all the soundsalike words - like "Bruke"
Bruk" etc
if I input Perl, i
would like to get back "Purl" and "Pearl"
the problem is that
if I input Brooke into Aspell, i will get nothing - because its the correct
spelling!
is there any way i
can force output of all soundsalike words?
im not really
building an app that needs spell checking - but it seems as though i can use
aspell for my solution.
my next solution was
to get the dictionary in text format - and build the soundex keys for each word
- so i can do my own soundex matching..
but i cant seem to
get the dictionary for Aspell in a text readable format..
any
suggestions?
thanks!
