Google's English word stemming is smart. I'm very jealous of it and want one too. If you, for example, search for set up ssh key then it perfectly finds "setting up ssh key" too. You can tell by how Google is bold-highlighting the words. Clever! I want such stemming too. I wonder if there's anything already done in Zope that I can use or if I have to write something myself.

I need to create a Zope index for a ZCatalog that is KeywordIndex. A KeywordIndex is a list (array if you like) that is used to describe some data. For example, if the data is "Peter is a Swedish Londoner", the the keywords are ("peter", "swedish", "londoner"). What about if the data you want to create an index of is a filename like "NameLog.txt" or "holiday-00412-juli-05.jpg". I've now quickly written a little something that seems to do a decent job. It splits the filenames (these are filenames only and no paths) by caMel structure, dot (.), underscore (_), dash (-) and digits.

You might have noticed that this site now has a search feature. It uses Zope's excellent ZCatalog.

This took me a while to grok and perhaps by mentioning it here, it'll prevent other people from making the same mistake as I did and perhaps preventing myself from doing the same mistake again.
