-
-The soundex algorithm takes an English word, and returns an
-easily-computed hash of it; this hash is intended to be the same for
-words that sound alike.  This module provides an interface to the
-soundex algorithm.
-
-Note that the soundex algorithm is quite simple-minded, and isn't
-perfect by any measure.  Its main purpose is to help looking up names
-in databases, when the name may be misspelled --- soundex hashes common
-misspellings together.
-
-\begin{funcdesc}{get_soundex}{string}
-Return the soundex hash value for a word; it will always be a
-6-character string.  \var{string} must contain the word to be hashed,
-with no leading whitespace; the case of the word is ignored.  (Note
-that the original algorithm produces a 4-character result.)
-\end{funcdesc}
-
-\begin{funcdesc}{sound_similar}{string1, string2}
-Compare the word in \var{string1} with the word in \var{string2}; this
-is equivalent to 
-\code{get_soundex(\var{string1})} \code{==}
-\code{get_soundex(\var{string2})}.
