[Xapian-devel] Paice-Husk Stemmer

[Satwant Rana]

Hi everyone,

I was working on the Paice-Husk Stemmer, which is a Bite Size Project for
Xapian, and I have created a C++ as well as Snowball version of it.

I read the algorithm, and picked the rules from here:
http://www.comp.lancs.ac.uk/computing/research/stemming/paice/descript.htm

The C++ code takes rules as input from a file and generates the stem of
given word, whereas the Snowball version has rules written in it. This is
because file handling is not possible in Snowball, and so I have written a
C++ code that generates the Snowball code (Code-ception :P).

Since the algorithm has many steps, my codes might have some mistakes.

This is where they are located: https://github.com/satwantrana/codes

I will be integrating this in my Xapian fork, and release a patch soon.
Meanwhile, if someone finds a bug/mistake in this, please respond.

Also, I hope this implementation helps my GSoC application.

Thanks,
Satwant Rana
