For the distance algorithm, check out FuzzyQuery and its dependent code.

Within Lucene's codebase is also a PorterStemFilter. However, we'd like to deprecate this in favor of the Snowball stemming code that currently lives in the Lucene Sandbox repository.

Hey,
On the site It says Lucence Uses Levenshtein distance
algorithm for fuzzy matching, where is this in the
source code? Also I would like to use the porter
stemming algorithm for somethign else, Are there any
documents on the Lucence implementation of Porter
Stemmer.

Best,
Yousef
