Subject: Ruby port of Nilsimsa?

Hi...

The Nilsimsa algorithmen is a digest technique for determining the
similarity of text messages (e.g. spam detection...)
Calling out to the standalone program is not very efficient, but
CPAN seemingly contains a modified version with only xx lines C
for Perl interfacing.

Any "bored" Ruby guru out there who can take a look how much
effort a port from Perl to Ruby interfaces would take?

I lack the knowledge of Ruby<-->C .... :-/

Thanks!
Martin
