Tclsnowball

A simple Tcl binding to some of the stemmers of the snowball project .

At the moment included code creates the english porter1, porter2, german and french stemmers. Others can be added easily thanks to Tcls great encoding system.

The code can be found here: http://physnet.uni-oldenburg.de/~schlenk/tcl/tclsnowball/tclsnowball0.1.tar.gz . (dead link 2015-02-03)

Alternate: [L1 ]

It is a standard TEA extension that should build cleanly on windows & linux/unix. (VC++ can not compile the snowball source, so on windows mingw or cygwin have to be used to build).


Usage example:

  % package require Tclsnowball
  0.1
  % ::snowball::stem porter2 "somelongword"
  somelongwor

Syntax:

  ::snowball::stem stemmername word
