php-stemmer

This stem extension for PHP provides stemming capability for a variety of
languages using Dr. M.F. Porter's Snowball API. It has a much simpler API
than the stem extension found in pecl.

This is a cleanup of php-stemmer.
Tests have been added and the bundled libstemmer has been removed. Functions
have been prefixed with the extension name. If you
need features not provided by your system's default version of libstemmer, you
can recompile libstemmer for your particular system.
