Not true. My WRDCOMP4.E is dated May 14 2001, and SEQCOMP5.E is dated Jan 20 2003. If i remember right, neither got contributed because of the significant pushback against Eu containing strings, so please consider that my fear of posting the code still exists. I still have the .e files, but not the test code, and not the code that actually used this day to day.

Sample test for the code included the following:

--{"c-a-t fish","catfish"}, 
--{"eeyes","eyes"}, 
--{"coookies","cookies"}, 
--{{"cookies"},{"cookies"}}, 
--{"NATO is considering allowing Yugoslav soldiers","NATO considered allowing Yugoslavian soldiers"}, 
--{"NATO is considering allowing Yugoslav soldiers","NATO considered allowing Yugoslavian soldiers"}, 
--{"NATO is considering allowing 78 Yugoslav soldiers","NATO is considering allowing 71 Yugoslav soldiers"}, 
--{{"NATO","is","considering","allowing","78","Yugoslav","soldiers"},{"NATO","is","considering","allowing","71","Yugoslav","soldiers"}}, 
--{{"the","Hook","of","Holland","gateway","to","Rotterdam",",","the","world's","biggest","port","."}, 
-- {"entrances","to","Rotterdam",",","the","world's","largest","port","."}}, 
 
--{"long",""}, 
--{"this bad english","the english muffins"}, 
--{"extrememly","extremely"}, 
--{"aaarrrggg","arrgggg"}, 
--{{"1","2"},{"1","3"}}, 
--{{"1","2","3"},{"1","2","4"}}, 
----{{"auto","-","parser"},{"autoparser"}}, 
--{"auto-parser","autoparser"}, 
--{{"the","cat","ate","a","big","dinner"},{"the","cat","aet","a","big","lunch"}}, 
 
 
  testdata[x][1] = {"Some","40","-","50","ships","blocked","the","Hook","of","Holland",",","gateway","to","Rotterdam","port","."} 
  testdata[x][2] = {"More","than","100","vessels","blocked","the","entrances","to","Rotterdam",",","the","world's","biggest","port","."} 

So, i've done it, 14 years ago, it won't take too many computing resources.
