Michael's suggestion is interesting. There is a github project
allowing Levenshtein numbers to be calculated and used in SA, I
will see if there is a way to apply it in this situation. Thanks
to all for their input.
It would have to be a plugin, and there's a CPAN module for
calculating Levenshtein numbers so most of the heavy lifting is
already done.
Sigh. Ignore that, that's exactly what it is. I need to stop replying
so quickly to stuff.
I don't think there was anything wrong in pointing out that it's
available from CPAN.
There is also a Damerau–Levenshtein version which is probably a better
choice as the transposition of two adjacent characters counts as 1
difference rather than 2.
I was more sighing about: "allowing ... to be ... used in SA" "It would
have to be a plugin"
