I’m trying to use `Search::FreeText` without stemming. To do this, I can either try to get the lexical analyser running with a different set of filters, or I can try to write my own lexicalizer. Either option requires me to get the Perl syntax for object orientation right.
Terrible. Very. Bad.

This is for my tag cloud thing, eg. CommunityWiki Cloud

Did you use HTML::TagCloud from CPAN?
It is very easy to use. I used it on a bookmark manager I am working on to show tags and most frequently used tag pairs.

I didn’t. I didn’t even know about it, to be honest. But then again, it required so little coding, I’m not sure it would have saved me much work. If I used HTML::TagCloud, I’d have to 1. still loop through all the tags, and therefore most of the work – the parsing of the db file and the avoiding of the stemming code – I would have had either way, and 2. I’d get a piece of static HTML/CSS which I would then have to include. Basically I think the most interesting part of the code is the part about using logarithms, which I might want to do eventually.

Hi, afaik, ’action=cloud’ it seems to be invalid action parameter in ’http://www.communitywiki.org/cw/?’ now

Yes, the underlying module was changed. Use http://www.communitywiki.org/en?action=tagcloud instead. ;)
