-This is a perl 5 module implementing the Soundex algorithm described by 
-Knuth. The algorithm is used quite often for locating a person by name
-where the actual spelling of the name is not known.
-
-This version directly supercedes the version of Text::Soundex that can be
-found in the core from Perl 5.8.0 and down. (This version is a drop-in
-replacement)
-
-The algorithm used by soundex() is NOT fully compatible with the
-algorithm used to index names for US Censuses. Use the soundex_nara()
-subroutine to return codes for this purpose.
