This very afternoon I copied an article (with source code in Turbo
Pascal) for the SOUNDEX algorithm.  It's only about 50 lines long so
converting it to another language shouldn't be a problem.

The reference is:

  Languages edited by Tony Rizzo, PC Magazine, September 26 1989, p377-378

The article includes a discussion of how it works as well.

Cheers
Giovanni
