=head1 NAME

Lingua::Stem::Snowball::Lt - Perl interface to Snowball stemmer for the Lithuanian language.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    my @words = qw( niekada myliu );

    # OO interface:
    my $stemmer = Lingua::Stem::Snowball::Lt->new( );
    $stemmer->stem_in_place( \@words ); # qw( niekad myl )

    # Functional interface:
    my @stems = stem( \@words );

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Stemming reduces related words to a common root form -- for instance, "horse",
"horses", and "horsing" all become "hors".  Most commonly, stemming is
deployed as part of a search application, allowing searches for a given term
to match documents which contain other forms of that term.

This module is very similar to L<Lingua::Stem> -- however, Lingua::Stem is
pure Perl, while Lingua::Stem::Snowball::Lt is an XS module which provides a Perl
interface to the C version of the Lithuanian stemmer based on Snowball.
(L<http://snowball.tartarus.org>).  

=head1 METHODS / FUNCTIONS

=head2 new

    my $stemmer = Lingua::Stem::Snowball::Lt->new( );
    die $@ if $@;

Create a Lingua::Stem::Snowball::Lt object.

=head2 stem

    @stemmed = $stemmer->stem( WORDS, [IS_STEMMED] );
    @stemmed = stem( WORDS, [LOCALE], [IS_STEMMED] );

Return lowercased and stemmed output.  WORDS may be either an array of words
or a single scalar word.  

In a scalar context, stem() returns the first item in the array of stems:

    $stem       = $stemmer->stem($word);
    $first_stem = $stemmer->stem(\@words); # probably wrong

LOCALE has no effect; it is only there as a placeholder for backwards
compatibility (see Changes).  IS_STEMMED must be a reference to a scalar; if
it is supplied, it will be set to 1 if the output differs from the input in
some way, 0 otherwise.

=head2 stem_in_place
 
    $stemmer->stem_in_place(\@words);

This is a high-performance, streamlined version of stem() (in fact, stem()
calls stem_in_place() internally). It has no return value, instead modifying
each item in an existing array of words.  The words must already be in lower
case.

Lingua::Stem::Snowball was originally developed to provide
access to stemming algorithms for the OpenFTS (full text search engine) 
project (L<http://openfts.sourceforge.net>), by Oleg Bartunov, E<lt>oleg at
sai dot msu dot suE<gt> and Teodor Sigaev, E<lt>teodor at stack dot netE<gt>.

Lingua::Stem::Snowball is currently maintained by Marvin Humphrey
E<lt>marvin at rectangular dot comE<gt>.  Previously maintained by Fabien
Potencier E<lt>fabpot at cpan dot orgE<gt>.  

Lithuanian language adaptation (Lingua::Stem::Snowball::Lt) was done by
Linas Valiukas.  Lithuanian stemmer for Snowball was created by Ž. Medelis,
M. Petkevičius and T. Krilavičius.
