If YOU are one of the many who have requested my "soundslike" program ( a soundex based spelling helper ), then please note that the three or four year old version I sent you has been totally re-written. The new version (rev 1.5) has been submitted to comp.unix.sources . If you requested the program from me, but did not receive it, it is only becouse the email bounced. Please be attentive to comp.unix. sources for I have submitted soundslike for posting there. All others interested in the Soundex algorithm may also wish to look for the soundslike posting since it includes a file that explains this simple method of spelling evaluation.
