in reply to Module to provide suggested terms for search?

You may want to check out Plucene, which is the Perl port of Apache's Lucene. I know the Java version's QueryParser supports fuzzy matching (using the ~ modifier on search terms). Unfortunately, the Perl port is incomplete, so it may not have the feature.

If worse comes to worse, you can check out Solr, which runs as a Java web service and would allow you to query a Lucene index using XML over HTTP.

    Plucene isn't recomended anymore because its "too slow". KinoSearch is faster.
