Text::LevenshteinXS - An XS implementation of the Levenshtein edit distance
SYNOPSIS
use Text::LevenshteinXS qw(distance);
print distance("foo","four");
# prints "2"
print distance("foo","bar");
# prints "3"
DESCRIPTION
This module implements the Levenshtein edit distance in a XS way.
The Levenshtein edit distance is a measure of the degree of proximity between two strings. This distance is the number of substitutions,
deletions or insertions ("edits") needed to transform one string into the other one (and vice versa). When two strings have distance 0,
they are the same. A good point to start is: <http://www.merriampark.com/ld.htm>

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

Hi all...
Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
Many tricky terminal escape codes are not catered for so I had to create workarounds.
One thing I searched for was this:

Well, guys I saw a question about GOTO for Python.
So this gave me the inspiration to attempt a GOTO function for 'dash', (bash and ksh too).

This is purely a fun project to see if it is possible in PURE... (3 Replies)
