Provides an implementation of the Porter stemming algorithm, defined here: http://tartarus.org/martin/PorterStemmer/def.txt This implementation has not been tuned for high performance on large amounts of text. It is a simple (naive perhaps) implementation of the rules.

The Porter stemming algorithm (or ‘Porter stemmer’) is a process for removing the commoner morphological and inflexional endings from words in English. Its main use is as part of a term normalisation process that is usually done when setting up Information Retrieval systems.
