A long time ago I wrote a binding to Austin [1] named LUSTI [2] that allowed
the programmer to experiment with various data structures used for
'lookups'. It had everything (BST, AVL, REDBLACK, SPLAY) but TRIE data
structure.
I remember it provided an inexact lookup function (lower bound, upper bound)
that returned a node that corresponded to the closest match. The details are
sketchy but I think I have used it in lieu of a proper trie structure.
