A friend of mine is writing some software for handling bibliographic references. One of the things he wants to do is to compare two references and see if they are "the same". The problem is that the references may actually be the same but one may have a typo in it. What he really needs is some criterion for determining whether two words are similar. Could anyone point him to some papers, or better yet, some code? Thanks, Conrad
