String::KeyboardDistance http://bgw.org/projects/perl/String-KeyboardDistance-1.00.tar.gz Approximate [probabalistic] string matching with a keyboard distance algorithm. Similar in nature to String::Approx (which uses Wu-Manber k-differences [edit distance]). use String::KeyboardDistance qw(:Functions); my $s1 = 'Apple'; my $s2 = 'Wople'; # compute a match probability my $pr = qwerty_keyboard_distance_match('Apple','Wople'); # find the keyboard distance between two strings my $dst = qwerty_keyboard_distance('IBM','HAL'); Any advice on name/content/etc?
