#With thanks to Ray Pereda (who ported the Perl code to Ruby) I
#have released a Stemmer gem which contains the Porter word stemming
#algorithm. Both Lucas Carlson and I were using this code in our
#Bayesian classifier projects, I have used it in another
#project and I'm sure other people make use of it too. It made
#sense to Lucas and I to separate it out into a Gem to make it
#easier for others to use.

Cool.
irb(main):006:0> "testing".stem

irb(main):007:0> "unimaginable".stem
=> "unimagin"
do you know of any algorithm that "stems" the prefix?
i'd like:
irb(main):007:0> "unimaginable".stem
