Erlang fgrep(1)
===============
```
usage: efgrep [-Fln][-k max] string [file ...]
-F frame the found string in square brackets
-l list files with a matching line
-k max max. number of pattern mismatches
-n number the output lines
```
This is intended more of an Erlang learning exercise than anything really practical.
Description
-----------
The paper on [Approximate Boyer-Moore String Matching][TU90] uses the [Boyer-Moore-Horspool][WKHORS] algorithm to implement two approximate string matching alogrithms for k-mismatches and k-differences. However, [Daniel Sunday's][DMS90] Boyer-Moore [Quick Search][SUNQS] variant is slightly more efficient than [Horspool's][HORSPOOL].
This program implements a generalised Boyer-Moore-Sunday approximate string matching for k-mismatches. For k=0, the program performs exact string searching. The implemntation turns out to be slightly easier than the Horspool version presented by Tarhio & Ukkonen or [Kuei-Hao Chen's slides][KHC1].
The Sunday alogrithm noted that the text character one past the pattern window will factor into the next round of comparisions and can be used to determine the offset of the next pattern window. Whereas Horspool relied on the text character at the end of the current pattern window to compute the offset of the next window. Sunday precomputes a bad-character shift table where every character not in the pattern is assigned the pattern length plus one and every character in the pattern is assigned its offset from the right of its right most occurence plus one.
So for the pattern "AGCT", m (the pattern length) is 4 and for k = 0 mismatches, the shift table looks like:
k A C G T *
-------------
0: 4 2 3 1 5
The shift table for k > 0 mismatches works simply by shortening the pattern length by k from the right. So the shift table for k = 1, looks like:
k A C G T *
-------------
0: 4 2 3 1 5
1: 3 1 2 4 4
The pattern is compared with the text from left-to-right. If a mismatch occurs, the text character just right of the pattern window is used to determine the pattern window shift; otherwise the pattern matches and the position in the text can be reported. Note the Sunday algorithm can do the character comparasions in any order, unlike regular Boyer-Moore which is strictly right-to-left order.
Examples
--------
These examples show how the pattern window shifts each iteration for values of 0 <= k < m. A dot (.) indicates a mismatch and equals (=) a match.
