This module implements a stemming algorithm to improve search results in Spanish with the Drupal built-in search module.
It reduces each word to its basic root or stem (for instance, "preguntando", "preguntar", "preguntó" to "pregunt") to perform search. This way the search results are improved and more relevant.
It is based on the Porter stemmer algorithm for the Spanish language. This Drupal module was developed from a PHP port of this algorithm: http://stemmer-es.sourceforge.net/
