Does anyone know of a public domain version of the Soundex algorithm that
I can get my hands on? Preferably under Unix?
thanks.

I have a simple spelling checking program that uses this and will
try to email it to you. Since your .sig file doesn't seem to contain
a path from a backbone site, I don't know if I'll be able to send it.
Consider the program on the way though, and let me know it you don't
receive it.
What appears to be a much better program is availiable from sites
that archive comp.sources.unix, check out 'sp' volume 8. I was not
able to get it to compile but maybe you'll have better luck.
